His Excellency the Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources, Francisco da Costa Monteiro, chaired a meeting with representatives of Santos and the Bayu Undan Joint Venture (BU JV) to review current developments related to the Bayu Undan field, including near-term priorities and planning for the next phase of the project.
