Ativo Is Currently The Third Largest Producing Field In The Country, With A Total Production Of 665 Million Barrels.

The FPSO Cidade de São Paulo, one of the first units to operate in the Brazilian Pre-Salt and the platform furthest from the coast, 320 kilometers from the Santos Basin, produced its first oil in the Sapinhoá Field in January 2013.

With 11 billion cubic meters of natural gas loaded and 665 million barrels of oil extracted, the asset has been quite successful over the last decade. The consortium formed by Repsol Sinopec (25%), the operator Petrobras (45%), and Shell (30%) is currently the third largest producing field in the country.

Located in the northern part of the field, where the well SPH-7D is located, it produces approximately 170,000 barrels of oil per day from 17 producing wells connected to the FPSO Cidade de São Paulo and FPSO Cidade de Ilhabela. The well SPH-7D is widely regarded as the best well in Brazil and one of the best in the world, with a production of 42,000 barrels of oil per day.

The Soviet Union spent 22 years drilling into the Earth’s crust and reached a depth of 12,262 meters — they found water where it was thought impossible, hydrogen bubbling from the rock, granite that is 2.7 billion years old, and temperatures of 180 degrees that melted the drill bits.

Ethiopia has banned gasoline and diesel cars, placed over a hundred silent electric buses on the streets of Addis Ababa, and now aims for half a million electric vehicles by 2030, all powered by Africa’s largest dam and a courage that few countries have shown.

Egypt wants to draw 10 million cubic meters of water from the Nile per day into the desert, irrigate a new agricultural frontier, and build a city where there is currently only sand.

Norway is drilling 27 kilometers of rock 392 meters below the bottom of a fjord to build the world’s largest and deepest underwater road tunnel — when completed, a 21-hour journey will be reduced to 10.

An astronaut spent 340 days in space while his twin brother stayed on Earth, and NASA found a “rejuvenating” effect, genes, microbiome, cognition, and immune system that revealed the biological cost of living outside the planet.

Chinese engineers begin filling a 217-meter dam at an altitude of 3,000 meters and prepare a 2,240 MW hydroelectric power plant to integrate hydropower, solar, and wind energy in the upper Jinsha.

A United States soldier who was on the mission to capture Nicolás Maduro bet hours before the official announcement, profited over US$400,000 on a prediction platform, and now faces federal charges.

More than 100 scientists warn that India, China, the United States, Mediterranean countries, and parts of Africa could enter an era of persistent droughts by the end of the century, with rivers under stress, demand exceeding supply, and a growing risk of continuous water scarcity.

Engineers from Iceland descended 4,659 meters into an active volcanic zone, and the IDDP-2 project found supercritical fluids at 427 degrees and 340 bar of pressure, crossing the boundary where water ceases to be liquid or vapor and begins to concentrate energy at extreme levels.

The biggest climatic tragedy ever recorded in the South of Brazil buried a family winery in mud, destroying machinery and production, but the family managed to transform the multi-million dollar loss into a new beginning with a limited edition of wines rescued from the disaster.

The electricity bill in the Northeast will increase by almost 10% starting this week — five states already have a scheduled date for the adjustment, and the director of ANEEL admits that the increase is double the inflation.

A Chinese company has just delivered its 10,000th humanoid robot — and now wants to place 100,000 in factories worldwide by the end of the year, while Tesla, Boston Dynamics, and the rest of the West have yet to move beyond prototypes.

Brazil has never generated so much clean energy — and has never charged so much for it: while solar and wind farms break records, the electricity bill rises by up to 23% and R$ 52 billion in charges are paid by 35 million families who don’t understand why electricity has become so expensive.
