Brazil Energy Forum celebrates opportunities in the oil and gas sector until 2029, highlighting strategic investments and professional training.

At the last meeting of the Brazil Energy Forum, held in September 2023, experts and industry leaders gathered for an exciting meeting to explore future trends in the mining and energy sector. This event, one of the most important in the industry calendar, highlighted not only the imminently expected technological advances, but also the vital role that innovation plays in the sustainable exploitation of natural resources. Important discussions revolved around the growing importance of mining in the global energy context.

In this context, the Forum revealed that mining, when integrated with ESG practices, can be a crucial factor for sustainable and innovative economic growth. During the meeting, representatives from the mining, extractive industry and mineral exploration sectors shared valuable insights on how digitalization and automation are transforming their operations. Experts predict that by 2029 there will be a digital revolution, also highlighting that, to keep up with this accelerated pace, it is crucial that companies invest in constant professional training.

Transformations and Perspectives for the Energy and Mineral Future

Between 2023 and 2029, there will be a significant increase in investments in mining projects that prioritize energy efficiency and the reduction of environmental impacts. The meeting, which also discussed strengthening the supply chain, sought ways to maximize economic and social benefits through responsible mining. In addition, integration with the Petrobras Business Plan promises to open new opportunities for the equipment and services industry, stimulating synergistic growth between sectors.

Sources such as the National Mining Agency and the Ministry of Mines and Energy reaffirm that continuous and multisectoral dialogue is essential for the success of the initiatives discussed at the event. With optimistic projections, Brazil is expected to consolidate itself as an epicenter of innovation in the sector, with mining playing a more integrated and strategic role in the national energy matrix.

Speakers emphasized that achieving these goals requires a favorable regulatory environment, as well as incentives for research and development. Among the conclusions of the Brazil Energy Forum, the urgent need for public policies that support technological transformation was highlighted, which is essential to leverage all the potential of mining and promote sustainable and inclusive development.

Starting Point of the Brazil Energy Forum

During the Brazil Energy Forum, which celebrates its steps towards horizon 2025/2029, there was a great convergence of strategic interests for the energy sector, specifically in oil and gas, with the event being organized by important institutions such as the Brazilian Institute of Oil and Gas (IBP), the Brazilian Association of Industrial Engineering (ABEMI), the Brazilian Association of Machinery and Equipment Industry (ABIMAQ) and Petrobras. The meeting took place this Tuesday, the 4th, in Rio de Janeiro, at the headquarters of Firjan, bringing together key players in the sector.

Attracting Interest and Participation

The event attracted 450 participants, setting a record of 107 meetings in the business round, which proved to be a true engine of opportunities. Magda Chambriard, CEO of Petrobras, emphasized the investment prospects in refining, logistics, gas, fertilizers and renewable energy planned by the company. She stressed the importance of this meeting in interacting with industry suppliers, as this relationship is crucial for Brazil's progress.

Petrobras' planning includes the opening of 12 thousand vacancies in the Autonomy and Income training program, with an emphasis on Itaboraí and São Gonçalo, in Rio de Janeiro, and in Três Lagoas, in Mato Grosso do Sul, demonstrating commitment to improving professional qualifications in socially vulnerable areas.

Looking to the Future: Horizon 2025/2029

'Petrobras' expansion, projected to increase by 60% by 2050, reflects our commitment to the country's development,' said Chambriard, highlighting that this move will benefit the industry and Brazilians by improving national competitiveness. Roberto Ardenghy, from the IBP, emphasized the role of the forum in uniting supply chain and equipment industry with Petrobras' vast portfolio, highlighting transparency in the company's actions as strategic.

Expectations and Strategic Plans

Ardenghy welcomed the diverse participation of companies, including a delegation from Italy, and Petrobras’ open communication about its plans to invest US$111 billion by 2029. This includes exploration and production projects and is seen as a vital opportunity for the entire production chain. Joaquim Maia, from ABEMI, praised Petrobras’ strategic stance, highlighting the importance of partnership and qualification to face the complex demands of the energy sector.

The Challenges and Opportunities of the Industry

In turn, José Velloso, from ABIMAQ, highlighted how this forum provides valuable information, motivation and opportunities to investors and the equipment industry. He valued the detail of Petrobras' planning, classifying it as essential for the dynamics and transparency of the business process, important for remaining competitive.

Raul Sanson, from Firjan, celebrated the rapprochement between Petrobras and the national production chain, citing success stories and the importance of strategic partnerships. The event was a clear reflection of a coordinated effort to overcome social vulnerability by strengthening qualifications and investment.

Global Projects and Investment Portfolio

At the Forum, Petrobras directors took the opportunity to detail the investment portfolio in global projects, classified as megaprojects, including the Boaventura Energy Complex (RJ) and the expansion of the Abreu e Lima Refinery (PE). Renata Baruzzi presented the contracting and development plans that signal enormous opportunities for suppliers.

Employability and Social Expansion

In addition, the expansion of the Autonomy and Income Program aims to offer training courses, which are vital for residents of areas where Petrobras operations have an impact, increasing employability and qualification in energy and gas. This program is the result of a partnership with SESI – SENAI and the Federal Institutes, reflecting a commitment to progress. The new 12 vacancies complement the initiatives already underway, promising to generate a positive impact in the coming years.
