The Brazilian government plans to use revenues from newly discovered oil fields to create a sovereign wealth fund containing as much as $200bn-$300bn in the next three to five years, Guido Mantega, finance minister, has told the Financial Times.

This is seriously putting the cart before the horse.

I don't understand how the Brazilians can let the contracts to build the rigs not more than a few weeks ago, then start SWF funds with non-existent revenue.

The VenezMexification of discovered but unproduced Brazilian oil continues.
