Exploratory well was drilled in 1961

In 1961, when this man was a 19 year old, Petrobras drilled a deep exploratory well right where he is standing. Today the site sits less than two meters away from the edge of the top of the high terrace overlooking the Jurua River, one of the major tributaries of the Amazon.
