Document Contains Suggestions from Independent Producers for the Continuity of Actions Such as Petrobras’ Divestment Program, Reate and Promar

The Brazilian Association of Independent Oil and Gas Producers (ABPIP) delivered this week to the campaign managers of the presidential candidates a document containing proposals aimed at building an efficient agenda focused on the oil and gas sector, based on the pillars of transparency, speed, and simplification, seeking to strengthen the sector and increase its contribution to job and income generation for the country.

In addition to explaining the role of independents in the oil and gas sector, the document brings suggestions that involve topics such as Petrobras’ Divestment Program, the continuation of actions established in the REATE and PROMAR programs, the exploration and production of unconventional reservoirs, environmental licensing, the restructuring of the ANP, and recommendations for greater efficiency in the New Gas Market.

According to Anabal Santos Jr., Executive Secretary of ABPIP, the goal of the Association is to promote a more competitive environment with the regulatory simplification and speed that current times demand. “The oil and natural gas sector is a key driver of the Brazilian economy, due to the substantial investments and socioeconomic impact it provides. To give you an idea, in the exploration and production sector alone, investments of about US$ 175 billion are projected for the period from 2023 to 2030, generating 570,000 direct and indirect jobs each year,” he explained.

Seven world powers including the US, China, and Russia are spending €22 billion on a reactor in the south of France that aims to confine plasma at 150 million degrees Celsius, ten times the temperature of the Sun’s core, using a magnetic field capable of lifting an entire aircraft carrier.

Elon Musk’s internet comes to mobile: Starlink technology connects smartphones without an antenna via satellite, works even without carrier signal, already costs just US$10 extra in the US, and could arrive in Brazil as an included benefit.

A Chinese factory in Guangdong is assembling a humanoid robot every 30 minutes while Tesla, Figure, and Boston Dynamics still struggle to deliver 10 thousand per year.

While Brazil has been discussing bullet trains for 16 years, China delivers 5 new high-speed lines in 2026, surpasses 50,000 km of HSR, and moves 1 billion passengers in a single year.

With a wingspan of 152 meters, 76 tires, and a capacity to carry 1,270 tons, the Boeing Pelican was the giant “flying ship” that promised to cross oceans close to the water on an invisible air cushion beneath its wings.

While countries spend billions to draw water from the sea, a Nobel-winning scientist creates a container-sized machine that extracts up to 1,000 liters per day from dry air and uses ultrasound to release water in minutes, even in the middle of the desert.

Belgium will sink 23 giant concrete caissons, each weighing 22,000 tons, in the North Sea to build the world’s first artificial energy island 45 km off the coast, forming offshore electrical walls.

While Belo Monte progressed slowly in Brazil, China is building in Tibet 5 cascade hydropower plants on the Yarlung Tsangpo that will generate 3 times the energy of the Three Gorges.

While Ferrogrão has been stalled for 16 years in Brazil, Chinese engineers are drilling 34.5 km of rock under Gaoligong Mountain to open Asia’s largest railway tunnel.

Chinese probe Tianwen-2 is traveling 45 million kilometers to touch Earth’s quasi-satellite Kamoʻoalewa and bring 100 grams of sample back home.

Researchers are excavating in Morocco the world’s oldest ankylosaur, dating back 165 million years, with nearly 1-meter long spines protruding from its neck.
