Exploration & Production

Oil and gas exploration and production is the core field of Petrovietnam, which is widely deployed not only in Vietnam but also in many countries around the world. Thanks to effective oil and gas exploration and production activities, Vietnam, from a country with absolutely no oil and gas industry, has become the country with the second largest oil reserves in Southeast Asia and the 28th in the world, capable of mastering all the most advanced technologies.
