Abstract

With the discovery of the Pre-Salt reserves, exploration of oil and gas is being strongly extended in Brazil, contributing to the recent increase of the demand for drilling capabilities. This paper discusses the impact of this oil discovery by assessing the relationship among the growth of proven reserves, the financial position of firms, and patent applications in the Brazilian upstream oil and gas industry. We provide empirical evidence indicating that firms with a lower financial performance prior to the pre-salt discovery were more aggressive in increasing the number of patent filings addressing technologies of the upstream oil and gas domain.
研究上游油气行业专利申请与财务状况之间的关系:来自巴西的证据
随着盐前储量的发现,巴西的石油和天然气勘探正在大力扩展,这有助于最近对钻探能力的需求增加。本文通过评估巴西上游石油和天然气行业的探明储量增长、公司财务状况和专利申请之间的关系,讨论了这一石油发现的影响。我们提供的经验证据表明,盐前发现之前财务业绩较低的公司在增加上游石油和天然气领域技术的专利申请数量方面更积极。
