SAO PAULO (Reuters) - Blackrock Inc (BLK.N) has reported owning 5 percent of preferential shares in Petroleo Brasileiro SA (PETR4.SA), the state-run oil company said in a statement on Wednesday.

Blackrock has no intention of interfering with the "management structure" of Petrobras, the company said, citing communications with the New York investment firm.
