PERU: New Gas Field Discovered.

LAHT/
President Alan Garcia announced the discovery of “a large quantity of (natural) gas” in a concession operated by Petrobras near the Camisea gas field in the southeast.
“We found gas in the jungle in Lot 58, a new lot that had never been explored before. We estimate we could have another 4 or 5 trillion cubic feet here,” Garcia said.
