Portuguese term or phrase: fechamentos (in this case)
I cannot figure out if fechamentos here refers to well that have been closed (unlikely as they are in pre-salt layer), or petroleum traps. Portuguese from Angola.

Thanks!

Em 2013, aquando do término do abandono do campo, foi conduzido pela AAAA um estudo com o objectivo de avaliar o potencial remanescente da área do XXXXX. O coeficiente de recuperação observado nas estruturas já testadas e produzidas foi relativamente alto (53%), o que desencoraja uma reentrância nos campos já produzidos, pelo menos para o intervalo do YYY. Portanto, o estudo focou-se na avaliação do potencial de outros intervalos/estruturas dentro da área do XXXXKu. Volumes foram calculados para o Terciário, estruturas do Pinda não testadas, e fechamentos no Pré-sal. Foram identificados 3 prospectos no Terciário, 6 no Pinda e 4 no Pré-sal (Tabela 1).

plugging(s)


Explanation:
How are wells plugged and abandoned?
When a well is no longer needed, either because the oil or gas reservoir becomes depleted, or because no oil or gas was found (called a dry-hole), the well is plugged and abandoned.
