BRASILIA (Reuters) - Brazil's Petrobras said on Monday it is again eligible to receive investments from Norway's largest pension fund, KLP, which had blocked investments in the state-owned oil firm following revelations of a sprawling corruption scheme.

KLP did not immediately respond to request for comment.
Operation Car Wash uncovered Brazil's largest-ever corruption scheme in which hundreds of politicians and businesspeople were implicated in exchanging bribes for public contracts with Petrobras.
In a 2016 statement announcing its exclusion of Petrobras from its portfolios, KLP said it had 33.74 million NOK ($3.57 million) invested in Petrobras shortly before the decision was made.
