COP30 Brings Together World Leaders To Discuss Technology, Cooperation, And Strategies Capable Of Accelerating Emission Reductions In The Oil And Gas Sector

COP30 took place on November 14, 2025, in Belém, and therefore gathered global representatives from the energy sector. The panel discussed technological solutions and international agreements aimed at decarbonization. Furthermore, the meeting highlighted the need for cooperation among countries with different emission profiles.

Brazilian Industry Advances With Innovation And Technology

Right at the opening, Roberto Ardenghy, president of the Brazilian Institute of Petroleum, Gas and Biofuels (IBP), stated that the Brazilian industry operates at the technological frontier of emission mitigation. Additionally, he highlighted that innovative solutions developed since 2024 have gained international relevance. Ardenghy also emphasized that commitment, technology, and scale need to advance together to achieve concrete results.

Global Emission Asymmetry Requires Constant Cooperation

Next, Ardenghy explained that climate discussions must consider global inequalities in emissions. He cited Turkmenistan, which recorded 50 million tons of CO₂ equivalent from methane in 2024. Brazil, on the other hand, maintained around 2 million tons in the same period. This difference demonstrates the urgency for technology transfer mechanisms, according to Ardenghy. He reinforced that “collaboration means providing technological solutions where emissions are highest”.

Technology Transfer As A Pillar Of Decarbonization

Shortly after, Patrick Pouyanné, CEO of TotalEnergies, stated that technology loses impact when it does not circulate internationally. Therefore, he argued that global diffusion of these solutions is essential to accelerate decarbonization. Meanwhile, Demetrios Papathanasiou, Global Director of Energy and Extractives at the World Bank, explained that the energy transition depends on the union of public policies, financing, and industrial capacity. He cited analyses released by the World Bank in 2024 to support this view.

Brazil Expands Its Protagonism In The Global Energy Transition

Following that, Renato Dutra, Secretary of Petroleum, Gas, and Biofuels at the Ministry of Mines and Energy, stated that Brazil maintains structural advantages in decarbonization. He explained that the Brazilian energy matrix has been cleaner since 2023, allowing for greater agility in climate projects. Furthermore, Dutra emphasized that the national industry possesses experience and technical capacity to advance efficiently.

Corporate Technologies Reinforce Advances In The Private Sector

Shortly thereafter, Viviana Coelho, Executive Manager of Climate Change at Petrobras, presented technologies applied by the company since 2022. She demonstrated that the private sector is already continuously working on reducing emissions. According to Coelho, “it is necessary to reduce emissions while we continue delivering energy at scale”. The statement highlights the operational challenge faced by the industry.

In your opinion, which path accelerates global decarbonization more: expanding technology or strengthening international cooperation in the oil and gas sector?

In China, the traffic light not only controls traffic, it identifies your face, predicts violations before the intersection, and can issue fines in seconds while exposing the driver on public screens.

The city that grew around steel produces millions of tons per year, operates with 3 industrial bases, and remains one of the strongest gears in Brazilian steelmaking.

92.62% completed, 519 km of tracks already installed, 41 tunnels excavated, and ongoing tests put the Chinese railway project of $10.63 billion in Malaysia just a few months away from starting operations and transforming the logistical axis between the two coasts of the country.
