Read the following text and answer items 41 to 45 below.
1 PETROBRAS is well on the road to greatly increasing
its market share of the South American oil business. The
state-run oil giant is investing more than US\$ 3 billion in a
4 strategy to spread risk, its managers say, through bold foreign
exploration.
In October 2002, PETROBRAS paid US\$ 1 billion
7 for 59% of Argentina’s second-largest oil producer, Perez
Companc (PECOM), and expects to spend another US\$ 2
billion over the next five years to beef up international
10 production, mainly in Venezuela but also in Peru, Bolivia and
Ecuador. Earlier, PETROBRAS swapped a billion dollar’s
worth of assets with Spanish-Argentine energy giant
13 Repsol-YPF for a share of Argentina’s retail gasoline and
refining business.
