  Think about it: 10 years ago the Gulf of Mexico was thought to be headed for oblivion, only to be revived mightily by technology that opened up the deepwater. Activity in Brazil was minimal, and now Diamond Offshore has a baker's dozen rigs working there, most in the deepwater and ultra-deepwater for Petrobras (NYSE: PBR  ) .

  For perspective, estimates for Brazil's major offshore pre-salt reserves indicate the potential for 70-100 barrels of oil equivalent, or boe. The country's national oil company,�Petrobras� (NYSE: PBR  ) , is still in the early stages of developing those reserves; its current goal is to reach production of 1 million barrels of oil per day by 2016. However, the company is still in the process of collecting information and mapping the pre-salt region, a project that won't be complete until 2018. What that means is that this play has a long way to go until we know the full extent of the resource potential, but its already producing impressive results.�
