Odebrecht Óleo & Gás SA, the offshore oil drilling firm owned by
Brazil's Odebrecht SA, reached an agreement with more than 60 percent of its creditors for a restructuring of about $5 billion in debt, it said in a statement on Tuesday.
OOG, as the company is known, had told Reuters earlier this month that talks with creditors were in final stages. OOG is among Odebrecht SA subsidiaries struggling with a widespread slowdown in
Latin America and restricted access to credit in the wake of a huge corruption scandal.
