Mapping Conducted in the Fields of Urucu, Juruá and Araracanga, in Amazonas, Has Been Extended to the Recôncavo Baiano, in the Northeast.

Petrobras announced yesterday (07/05) that the Petrobras Research and Innovation Center (Cenpes) developed a digital soil mapping project, which has already managed to map an area of 18,700 km² (equivalent to 85% of the territory of Sergipe). Initially conducted in the fields of Urucu, Juruá and Araracanga, in Amazonas, the mapping has also been extended to the Recôncavo Baiano, one of the main oil exploration areas in the Northeast.

According to Petrobras, to carry out this digital mapping work, the Cenpes team created an algorithm that allows, from the study of a smaller area, to extrapolate the mapping to a larger territory using digital tools. With this new methodology, the mapping cost was reduced by 16 times – and the methodology can be replicated in other areas.

Digital Mapping Defines Routes for Monitoring Production Installations, Strengthening Accident Prevention.

With the mapping, it is possible to identify areas where construction causes less impact and define routes for monitoring production installations, strengthening accident prevention.

The oldest tree in the world, alive since before the birth of Jesus Christ, is cut down in a scientific study and the case changes environmental preservation rules.

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows an unlikely oasis in the Saudi Arabian desert, protected by a terrain that slows the advance of sand, surrounded by green circles, remnants of an extinct lake and nearly 10,000 years of preserved history.

An entire island in the Pacific wants to surround itself with a colossal barrier against the ocean to try to escape increasingly violent waves and not be swallowed by the sea in the coming decades.

After ten days orbiting the Moon, science confirms that the astronauts of the Artemis II mission return with altered bodies.

With 7.4 trillion tons of artificial snow pumped in 10 years, an extreme operation could stabilize the West Antarctic ice sheet and prevent a sea level rise of more than 3 meters, but it would require snow cannons, ocean water, and energy on an almost industrial scale at the end of the world.

Peru built a tunnel at an altitude of 4,738 meters cutting through the Andes Mountains, and the road leading to it reaches 4,818 meters, making it the highest paved road in the entire world.

The reign of carpets in the entrance hall has come to an end: aluminum mats emerge as a new trend that hardly gets dirty, lasts longer, and improves the hygiene of spaces.

The construction of houses with cement wood blocks is surprising workers; it uses a direct fitting system without complications and can make the work up to 100 times faster than the conventional method.

The government announces a new clinical research program and outlines how the amount of R$120 million in investments will be distributed among hospitals and universities of the SUS.

Cities in the United States are slowly sinking, and the reason behind the ground subsidence may surprise even experts as buildings, streets, and entire neighborhoods begin to give way without visible signs.
