MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
It is with special pride that I present the Company’s results for 2005, a year in which we set records for
production, profitability and investments. The Company ended the year with an annual daily production of oil
and gas of 2,217 million barrels of oil equivalent (boe), consolidated earnings of R$ 23,725 billion and total
investments of R$ 25,710 billion, all historical records.
In order to obtain these results, we implemented a vigorous plan of action based principally on the
continuation of a bold investment cycle that allows us to achieve sustainable returns over the medium and
long-term. This effort, initiated during the administration of President José Eduardo Dutra with whom I shared
the command of the company during 2005, made it possible to restructure our activities and improve our
strategic vision of the future.

REDUCING THE RISK AND
VULNERABILITY OF BRAZIL´S
In practical terms, I should mention that we passed the benchmark of 1.8 million barrels of oil per day
(bpd) produced in Brazil, mainly due to the startup of the P-43 and P-48 platforms. We consider this a
milestone in the ability of Petrobras’ technical and managerial staff to overcome challenges. In 2003, these
units were well behind in executing their projects and ran serious risks in contractual and
operational feasibility. Nevertheless, we were able to reverse the situation and today
the two rigs are operating at full production.
As a result, we were able to boost annual oil production in Brazil by 13%. This growth

placed Petrobras in the ranks of companies with the highest rise in production in the

world oil industry in 2005. Even with our expanded production, we were able to

guarantee a 131% replacement rate of our oil reserves. That is, for each barrel we
produced, we replaced 1.31 barrels in our reserves, meaning that we continue to maintain
long-term sustainable growth.
In step with the restructuring of our exploration portfolio and the
preservation of sustainable growth, during the 7th Bidding Round
run by the National Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuel Agency
(ANP), Petrobras acquired 96 new exploratory blocks, of which
42 were exclusive and 54 were in partnership, totaling the
greatest number of exploratory areas in its portfolio since
the Agency began running the auctions.
We are now quite close to self-sufficiency in
providing oil and oil products to our main market

One of the underpinnings of our action plan has been continuous massive investment in technological
development. And the results can be seen in, for example, the national record for drilling depth: a slanting
well that reached 6,915 meters below the sea bottom in the Santos Basin. Our refineries have been

With this performance, the Company will be able to boost the share of Brazilian oil in the throughputs processed in domestic refineries from 80% to 91%, thus consolidating the sustainability of self-sufficiency in this market.
Approved by the Board of Directors in August, the Business Plan calls for investments of US$ 56.4 billion – an

At the Seventh Bidding Round of the National Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels Agency (ANP) held in October,
Petrobras proceeded to restructure and expand the profile of its portfolio of exploration areas, reversing the decline
that was a trend of the first rounds. Of the 109 areas it disputed, the Company acquired 96, totaling 39,872.80 km2.
With the new concessions Petrobras is seeking to guarantee the levels of production of oil and gas called for in
the 2015 Strategic Plan. The portfolio now contains 134 blocks totaling 151.5 thousand km2. Added to the 27 areas

the previous rounds, the 96 cells that were auctioned off were grouped into 39 contract blocks, each one consisting
of a contractual instrument. Of the 39 contract blocks, Petrobras has exclusive rights in 16 and is in partnerships
with other companies to operate another 14 blocks. In the other nine, partners are responsible for the operation
and the Company is an associate.
Furthermore, of the 39 of the contract blocks, 24 are located in onshore sedimentary basins and 15 are in
maritime basins. On land, the blocks are in two types of basins: mature coastal and inland. In the coastal basins,
Petrobras already has installed infrastructure and intends to incorporate oil volumes in the short term that should
slow the decline in production in these areas.
In blocks located in the inland basins, the objective is to make new discoveries. In the Solimões Basin, the
Company already produces oil and gas and has accumulated knowledge about the area. In the São Francisco Basin,

Petrobras’ proved reserves of oil, condensate and natural gas in Brazil reached 13.2 billion boe, using ANP/SPE
criteria, posting an increase of 1.6% over 2004. During the year, 882 million boe of reserves were incorporated while
the volume produced was 673 million boe. With this, the Proved Reserve Replacement Index (IRR) rose to 131.1%.

For each barrel produced, 1.31 was replaced in the reserves. The reserve/production ratio (R/P) was 19.7 years.
New fields that were discovered in the past few years and had commercial viability declared recently (580
million boe) contributed to the increase in the volume of the proved reserves as did new accumulations discovered
in fields that already are in production (300 million boe). The incorporation of existing fields resulted in the
transformation of probable and possible reserves into proved reserves, thanks to development continuity. They also
stemmed from reservoir management practices that sought to enhance oil recovery.

Petrobras’ strategy is to increase its participation in the fertilizer segment, mainly nitrogenates, in
view of the fact that a major portion of the demand from Brazilian agribusiness — a sector
that represents 30% of the GDP — is supplied via imports. In 2005, the sales of ammonia
and urea generated net revenues of US$ 330 million for Petrobras, rising 8% over the
previous year.
The nitrogenous fertilizer plants sold 205,000 tons of ammonia on the domestic market,
the fourth consecutive year in which sales increased. Another noteworthy point regarding ammonia
was the record production of Fafen/SE (400 thousand tons). In the segments of urea used as
fertilizer, Petrobras remained the leader of the domestic market, with sales of 708 thousand
tons during the year.
Seeking improvements in urea logistics and quality, Petrobras initiated construction of a

advantage of business opportunities that emerge in the field of renewable products, such as alcohol and biodiesel.
The orders for the tankers, financed by the BNDES through funds made available by the Merchant Marine Fund,
have a premise: at least 65% of the ships must be domestic content, which is in line with the guidelines of the
National Petroleum and Natural Gas Industry Mobilization Program (Prominp).
Over 20 thousand jobs will be created during construction of the first 26 vessels. By contracting the
manufacturing of the ships in Brazil, Transpetro is contributing to the resumption of large scale naval construction
in the country. It is expected that the dock yards will gain international competitiveness, stimulated by the scale of
production and the incentive for technological modernization, coupled with the training of their professional staffs.

by Gasmig and Compagás. The Gemini Consortium will establish, in 2006, the first LNG plant in Brazil.
Technology
As part of the strategy to develop the segment, two technological enhancement initiatives in the natural gas chain
of production were chosen as priority programs for investment: the RedeGasEnergia (Gas Energy Network) and
the Gas Technology Center. With 90 projects on the drawing boards for expanding the use of the product, the
Network involves universities research institutes, distributors, equipment manufacturers and government
organizations. In partnership with the National Industry Service (SENAI), the Center promotes the use of gas and
fosters the training of specialized manpower.
Within the context of bringing the use of natural gas to a mass market, RedeGasEnergia’s Excellence Network
undertakes cooperative and segmented efforts focused on technology and the development of the natural gas
market, striving to increase the share of this fuel in the domestic energy matrix in a sustainable manner, connecting

communities that are involved.
The Petrobras Zero Hunger initiatives involve five lines of action — guarantee of the rights of children and
teenagers, education and professional training, generation of jobs and income, social projects and volunteerism.
On these fronts, the program runs programs aimed at promoting racial and gender equality and the inclusion of
the handicapped.
The great majority of the projects for the Petrobras Zero Hunger program was chosen through a public selection
process. A total of R$ 18 million was earmarked in 2005 for this process, resulting in sponsorship of 74 new
projects. As a result, Petrobras’ funds and knowledge were merged with society’s own resources in an effort to
overcome misery and to foster the social inclusion of low-income communities around Brazil.
The Petrobras System disbursed R$ 42 million to the Infancy and Adolescence Fund (FIA) through the National
Council (Conanda), the Piauí State Council and municipal councils in order to guarantee the rights of children and
teenagers. The funds were used in 190 municipalities, in a majority of the states, to finance more than 300 projects

through a public selection process. In 2005, of the 4 thousand projects that were

scenic arts, visual arts and music. Approximately another 100 projects directly invited to participate received
funding in the amount of R$ 15 million.

The first selection of Petrobras Environmental Program projects involved an investment of some R$ 40 million over
the first two years they were being run, with approximately 5 thousand people working to conserve water resources.
In December 2005 during the National Environmental Conference, the Company presented the results of the
analyses of samples that were collected in Brazil’s main rivers, reservoirs and lakes through the Brasil das Águas
project that was carried out over 14 months and covered 120 thousand kilometers. The second phase of the
project calls for preservation actions in seven rivers that have been selected based upon the results of the research
study and the existing social, economic and environmental situation of the regions that are involved.
The Company continues to sponsor programs aimed at preserving marine biodiversity — including the
Tamar Marine Turtle, Humpback Whale, Manatee and Southern Right Whale projects. Sponsored since
2002, the Humpback Whale Project has catalogued 332 individuals of this threatened species along
Brazil’s South Region coastline, representing a 14% increase per year. Approximately 2,000 whales
have been catalogued by the Southern Right

Northeast coast. This is the third largest

Sports sponsorship
One of the major partners of Brazilian sports, during the year Petrobras destined some R$ 50 million in support of
different sporting activities. Besides traditional sponsorship — such as Formula 1 motor racing, the Petrobras Lubrax
Team and the Flamengo soccer club, the Company sought to consolidate the presence of its brand in the worlds of
surfing, tennis and handball. The latter, which is the most practiced sport in public schools in the country, was chosen
as the focus of its support of the Olympic ideals.
Sponsorship of tennis was definitively incorporated into the Company’s internationalization strategy in South
America. Through the second holding of the Petrobras Tennis Cup, disputed in Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, Uruguay
and Chile, the Company brand was on display in countries where it has commercial interests in view of its business
expansion around Latin America.
One important milestone in the Human Resources area in 2005 – year dedicated to improving and adjusting its
strategies to the 2015 Strategic Plan and the 2006-2010 Business Plan - was the creation of the HR Management
Committee made up of executives from different Petrobras areas. The idea is to foster alignment between business

of research: improving the production of heavy oil in an offshore environment; achieving technological
advances in ultra-deep water areas; and the minimizing of the decline of mature onshore and offshore
oil fields. In its efforts to improve production technology, one of Cenpes’
objectives is to reduce costs for the Company.
Horizontal wells are one of Cenpes’ technological contributions
for enhancing resources since they increase the flow of oil out of
offshore fields by up to a factor of five — thus making Petrobras’
large projects economically feasible. The use of artificial
oil lifting equipment, installed at a depth of 2,000
meters, also has been a decisive factor for the
development of heavy oil production.

projects in the Santos Basin and heavy oil production projects in the Jubarte field in the Campos Basin. In downstream
activities, it was involved in projects at RPBC, Replan and Repar encompassing improvements in fuel quality, the
reduction of polluting emissions and expansion of heavy oil refining operations. The Center also developed the new
formulation of Podium gasoline in Argentina and continued its research for the production of biodiesel fuel.
Cenpes carried out a number of relationship activities with its stakeholders, strengthening the role of the
Company as a technological leader and adding value to the brand. The Center launched a second edition of the
Petrobras Technology Prize, created in 2004 to encourage the work of researchers and students in the field of oil
and gas. For their innovative contributions to the Company’s oil, gas and energy sectors, the authors of 27 projects
that were selected during the first edition of the Prize received their awards in October.
Petrobras has initiated expansion of Cenpes in view of the new research demands that have emerged in fields
such as the environment, gas and energy. New facilities, totaling 88.7 thousand m2, will be built on its land directly

ucts and services. Based on the 2015 Strategic Plan, the Company created a Marketing and Brand Committee to
improve management of this asset in view of the demand stemming from the expansion of its activities.
Among the attributes of the new committee, which is linked to the Businesses Committee, is the preparation
of a brand management operating model, designed to establish the guidelines for use of brand names within the
Petrobras System. By the creation of these guidelines, the Company is seeking greater protection of the asset while,
at the same time, it continues to be involved in the legal defense of its brand in the markets where it is active.
The global management of the brand is in step with Petrobras’ strategy of an integrated effort to increase its
visibility and strengthen the identity of its products and services on the markets. At the corporate level, the
Company has been implementing initiatives that are designed to develop global brands for its products and

Petrobras constantly strives to improve its corporate governance practices and relationships with shareholders,
customers, suppliers, employees and other stakeholders. The Company adopts management procedures that are
compatible with the rules governing market activities in Brazil and other countries, which requires constant effort
in order to monitor and implement the practices established in the various nations in which it operates.
In Brazil, Petrobras is subject to the rules of the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) and the
São Paulo Stock Exchange (Bovespa). Abroad, it submits itself to the regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) and the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in the United States; of the Latibex market of the
Madrid Stock Exchange in Spain; and the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange in Argentina.
Since changes were made to its bylaws in 2002, Petrobras has been in compliance with the practices and
regulations of the São Paulo Stock Exchange, and its process of formal adhesion to the differentiated corporate
governance levels of the Bovespa continuing to be a subject of permanent analysis by the Company.
The corporate governance executive training program continued to be run during the year. Besides disseminating
the best governance practices adopted in Brazil and abroad within the Company, the program fosters awareness
about the importance of this topic to both senior management and employees in general. In 2005, training focused

According to SOX Section 302 and SEC Rule 13a-14, the filing of the Annual Report through Form 20-F must be
accompanied by certifications signed by the Company’s President and CEO and the Chief Financial Officer (CFO)
attesting their responsibility for the preparation and maintenance of the CPDI.
They must supervise the conception and updating of these controls and disclosure
procedures, which is carried out by the Investor Relations Department.
The process described in the document allows the collection, control, analysis
and tracking of all of the information periodically released by Petrobras in its
quarterly and annual reports, including through the Form 20-F. The use of a
responsibility matrix makes it possible to identify the origin of each piece of
information and who was responsible for generating it, subsequently certified by the
executive managers involved in the process. Thus, it is possible to know where
and in what corporate system information is recorded and who was responsible
for processing, summarizing and registering the information in the reports.
