All were acquired in ANP Round 14 and Imetame has a 100% interest on each. Petro-Victory said the five concessions were the company's first assets in the mature, producing Espirito Santo Basin and that they represented a substantial increase in its Brazilian holdings. The cost to acquire is an estimated US$ 440,000 to be paid by Petro-Victory through its cash on hand. Petro-Victory said that "each concession is highly prospective, low risk and oil prone.
