The Brazilian company also signed an agreement for a $10 billion loan from the China Development Bank, which will be used to finance the exploration for oil in Brazil.

The agreements were signed during Vice-President Xi Jinping's official visit to Brazil. He met Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva on Thursday.
