On November 13 and 14, great names in the energy industry gather in Campinas to discuss the future of energy.

Anchored at Unicamp, the EPIC (Energy Production Innovation Center) is preparing to bring its fifth conference to life. This meeting, taking place at the Eldorado Research Institute, located in Campinas (SP), marks the culmination of the first phase of research conducted in collaboration with FAPESP and the energy giant Equinor, while announcing a renewed phase with new research guidelines.

The core of the conference aims to engage a diverse range of professionals – from researchers and academics to industry leaders and government authorities. The program will feature five prominent lectures, two dynamic round tables, and presentations of the best projects developed under the auspices of EPIC. These investigations focused primarily on three axes: optimization of oil production via numerical simulation models, optimization through artificial lift and flow, and characterization and geological modeling of Brazil’s pre-salt carbonate reservoirs.

Energy transformation is the focus. One of the round tables will deeply examine the impact of new technologies on the industry, with particular attention to regulatory and legal challenges. This debate will feature the expertise of representatives from Equinor, ANP, FAPESP, and CEPETRO, and will be moderated by the capable director of EPIC, Professor Denis J. Schiozer. On the other hand, Alejandro Escalona Varela from the University of Stavanger (Norway) will shed light on the challenges of energy transition, bringing a Norwegian perspective.

Three other international keynote speakers will enlighten the event with their innovative views for the industry: Reidar Brumer Bratvold, also from the University of Stavanger; Robert H. Goldstein from the University of Kansas; and renowned Canadian consultant, Francisco Alhanati. No less important, Mateus Silva Pierre from the Eldorado Institute will delve into the crucial world of cybersecurity in critical infrastructures.

Building Bridges Between Industry and Academia

The second round table of the event will focus on strengthening the ties between the academic world and the industry, represented by giants such as Shell, NORCE, Eldorado Institute, Equinor, and Texas A&M University.

Wrapping up on a high note, the director of EPIC will outline the center’s horizon. But the journey does not end there: after the conference, enthusiasts will be able to sign up for an online minicourse in English on “optimizing oil production through numerical simulation models of reservoirs,” scheduled for November 16, 17, and 23.

EPIC Conference: Innovation and Challenges in the Oil and Gas Sector

On November 13 and 14, great names in the energy industry gather in Campinas to discuss the future of energy.

A giant half-ton ring fell in Kenya from space, and more than a year later, scientists still do not know where it came from.

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.

In Botswana, a salt flat of up to 16,000 km² that was once an African megalake spends months as an absolute white desert, but during the rainy season it transforms into a shallow sea that reappears from nowhere and can be seen from space in the middle of southern Africa.

Bavarian archaeologists unearthed a medieval skeleton that had an articulated iron hand in place of its left arm, and the discovery reveals that doctors were already creating sophisticated prosthetics over 500 years ago.

Cell phones in schools: learn how a year after the ban, students and teachers are already noticing positive effects and recording improvements in academic performance with increased attention and active participation.

With 1,000 buses sent abroad, the Brazilian manufacturer consolidates the strength of national technology and takes on a leading role in public transportation across all of Latin America.

More than 1,500 Chinese workers transformed an entire railway station in just one night and reduced a 7-hour journey to 90 minutes with a high-speed line of 200 km/h.

Brazilian city becomes a global destination after attracting tourists who travel up to 10,000 km to visit a sanctuary with 11 giant saints up to 10 meters tall, open 24 hours and located along a highway in SP.

JBL Flip Essential 3 SE is launched with 30W of power (20W + 10W), Bluetooth 5.4, Auracast for multiple connections, IP67 water and dust resistance, up to 12 hours of battery life, and a price of approximately R$ 660 in China.

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

Pernambuco paradise with 59% of preserved area advances with R$ 2 billion in e-methanol, aims for 900 tons/day, grows 38.6% and builds electrified terminal of 400 thousand TEUs.

Brazil may have railways back on the map, but it will need the government: a study reveals 7,412 km ready for reactivation, a cost of R$ 75 billion, 61 sections analyzed, and none viable without public funding.

China has just discovered oil in rock layers that no one thought could be explored at the bottom of the South China Sea, and the field with over 100 million tons could change the balance of energy power in Asia.

Petrobras finds oil on the seabed in the Campos Basin, hundreds of kilometers off the coast of Rio, and the discovery in a deep area raises curiosity about what else may be hidden in the pre-salt and how much this new area could surprise Brazil in the coming years.

Petrobras announces a new discovery in the pre-salt layer of the Campos Basin in block C-M-477, 201 km off the coast of Rio and at a depth of 2,984 m, following indications from electrical profiles, gas, and samples collected during drilling.

Even before the first drilling on the Brazilian Equatorial Margin, a wave of migrants is pressuring Oiapoque, expanding precarious occupations and transforming the city of Amapá into the new epicenter of the oil rush in the Amazon.

Oil rises more than 7% and surpasses $102 this Monday (13) after the announcement of the U.S. blockade on Iran, putting pressure on fuels, raising global inflation, and impacting economic costs.
