ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT

This document consists of two parts. The first part is the prospectus supplement, which describes the specific terms of the notes
PifCo is offering and certain other matters relating to PifCo and Petrobras and their financial condition. The second part, the
accompanying prospectus, gives more general information about securities that PifCo and Petrobras may offer from time to time.
Generally, references to the prospectus mean this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus combined. If the
information in this prospectus supplement differs from the information in the accompanying prospectus, the information in this
prospectus supplement supersedes the information in the accompanying prospectus.

We are responsible for the information contained and incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and in any related
free-writing prospectus we prepare or authorize. PifCo and Petrobras have not authorized anyone to give you any other information,
and we take no responsibility for any other information that others may give you. Neither PifCo nor Petrobras is making an offer to
sell the notes in any jurisdiction where the offer is not permitted. You should not assume that the information in this prospectus
supplement, the accompanying prospectus or any document incorporated by reference is accurate as of any date other than the date of
the relevant document.

We have prepared this prospectus supplement for use solely in connection with the proposed offering of the notes, and it may only
be used for that purpose.

This prospectus supplement is for distribution only to persons who (i) have professional experience in matters relating to
investments falling within Article 19(5) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005 (as
amended, the "Financial Promotion Order"), (ii) are persons falling within Article 49(2)(a) to (d) ("high net worth companies,
unincorporated associations etc") of the Financial Promotion Order, (iii) are outside the United Kingdom, or (iv) are persons to whom
an invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets
Act 2000) in connection with the issue or sale of any securities may otherwise lawfully be communicated or caused to be
communicated (all such persons together being referred to as "relevant persons"). This prospectus supplement is directed only at
relevant persons and must not be acted on or relied on by persons who are not relevant persons. Any investment or investment activity
to which this prospectus supplement relates is available only to relevant persons and will be engaged in only with relevant persons.

In this prospectus supplement, unless the context otherwise requires or as otherwise indicated, references to "Petrobras" mean
Petróleo Brasileiro S.A.-Petrobras and its consolidated subsidiaries taken as a whole, and references to "PifCo" mean Petrobras
International Finance Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Petrobras, and its consolidated subsidiaries taken as a whole. Terms
such as "we," "us" and "our" generally refer to both Petrobras and PifCo, unless the context requires otherwise or as otherwise
indicated.

References herein to "reais" or "R$" are to the lawful currency of Brazil. References herein to "U.S. dollars" or "U.S.$" are to the
lawful currency of the United States. References herein to "euros" or "" are to the lawful currency of the member states of the
European Monetary Union that have adopted or will adopt the single currency in accordance with the Treaty Establishing the
European Community, as amended by the Treaty on European Union.


S-1



In connection with the offering of the notes, the underwriters are not acting for anyone other than PifCo and will not be responsible
to anyone other than PifCo for providing the protections afforded to their clients for providing advice in relation to the offering.

In connection with the offering of the notes, HSBC Bank plc, the "Stabilizing Manager(s)", (or persons acting on behalf of the
Stabilizing Manager(s)) may over-allot notes or effect transactions with a view to supporting the market price of the notes at a level
higher than that which might otherwise prevail. However, there is no assurance that the Stabilizing Manager(s) (or persons acting on
their behalf of the Stabilizing Manager(s)) will undertake any stabilization action. Any stabilization action may begin on or after the
date on which adequate public disclosure of the final terms of the offer of the notes is made and, if begun, may be ended at any time,
but it must end no later than 30 calendar days after the date on which PifCo received the proceeds of the issue, or no later than 60
calendar days after the date of the allotment of the notes, whichever is the earlier.
