Sample of Lobato oil

Museu Nacional

Museu Nacional
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Bottle 40 cm high. Oil sample glass from Poço de Lobato, drilled in 1939 in Bahia, known as the first well in Brazil to produce oil. Although it was classified at the time of drilling as a "subcommercial", the oil from that well encouraged the continuation of oil research in the region of the Recôncavo Baiano.
