According to a Survey Conducted by CNN, It Is Estimated That by the End of 2025, the Offshore Oil and Gas Sector Will Be Generating Over Half a Million Job Openings and Circulate a Billion-Dollar Value in the Global Economy (Above US$ 100 Billion). 

Job Openings Abroad? The  Executive Director of the Association, Telmo Ghiorzi, stated that a large portion of Brazilian professionals who speak fluent English choose to work abroad, as they have the opportunity to earn in dollars (the US dollar is being quoted at around R$ 5.17) and are more valued. According to offshore oil and gas workers, Brazilian companies do not pay decent salaries and do not offer good working conditions. 

Telmo stated in an interview that, for every R$ 1 billion invested in this field, it is estimated that over 25,000 new job openings will arise, both domestically and internationally. However, when the most skilled professionals have the opportunity to choose, they prefer to work with multinational companies in other countries. Furthermore, many international companies assist with the entire relocation and visa process to attract skilled labor and optimize their production processes.  

The Analyst Evaluates That Brazil Is in Its Brain Drain Process. That is, the best and most qualified specialists are leaving the country, while national companies are left only with unskilled labor, lacking engineers and college graduates. The consequence of this is clear: the difficulty in filling the opportunities that will arise from the new sector investments and, indeed, the stagnation of companies in meeting external export demands, impacting revenue and GDP (Gross Domestic Product).
