Data Acquisition Campaigns Have Been Authorized for Shell in Gato do Mato to Be Launched in 2019

Shell acquired blocks in Gato do Mato and Gato do Mato Sul in the second round of oil auctions in October 2017, but only now has it been authorized to license these assets, as the saying goes, “better late than never.” It’s worth noting that these acquisitions by the Anglo-Dutch company are in the form of a consortium with the oil company Total, in the pre-salt layer of the Santos Basin. In a clever way, Shell and other multinationals have been gaining ground in national exploration.

According to Shell, the seismic data acquisitions are scheduled to begin in July 2019. The territorial area that will be covered for data acquisition is within a perimeter of 9,400 km², which ultimately will also encompass the Maromba area, potentially providing an indirect benefit for the oil company.

These are vessels that use cables and sensors with several meters of length that are dragged across the sea. These systems emit “sound bursts” toward the ocean floor, which reflect back into 3D images, similar to sonar. There are more advanced equipment that can now emit signals that can be visualized in 4D, providing more complete profiling information and more accurate data.

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt has ceased to be a climatic phenomenon and has become a biological system that feeds on itself, with 8,000 kilometers in length, 37 million tons of algae, and scientists confirm that it is now permanent.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

She started by collecting oyster shells from restaurants and today she has already accumulated more than 10 tons to restore reefs, recover coastal habitats, and demonstrate how a common waste can become a tool for ocean conservation.

Philippines begin construction of the country’s largest desalination plant in a city without enough fresh water to grow, and the 66,500 m³ per day plant will transform the sea into drinking water for 50,000 homes in 24 months with reverse osmosis technology from SUEZ and JEMCO.

Turkey is building a billion-dollar shortcut to channel billions of dollars by sea with a 45 km long canal, 275 meters wide and 20.75 meters deep, which promises to relieve the Bosphorus amid the crisis in the Strait of Hormuz.

While millions live on Bolsa Família, Luciano Huck, a Globo presenter, says that beneficiaries create ‘workarounds’ to never leave the program and claims that the benefit does not encourage anyone to work.

While France, Japan, and others are already filling the sea with floating turbines, Brazil, which has some of the best ocean winds on the planet, is still setting up its first floating wind turbine.

Chinese SUV BYD Song reaches 5th position among the best-selling in Brazil, surpassing Jeep Compass, Volkswagen Nivus, Fiat Fastback, and Honda HR-V.

An Indonesian fisherman pulls a mysterious object from the sea and discovers that it is a Chinese underwater monitoring system, part of the so-called Underwater Great Wall that Beijing uses to track submarines and unmanned vehicles in strategic straits of the region.

Water hyacinth that blocks boats, oxygen, and channels gains a new function as a lightweight construction panel, creating a sustainable alternative, reducing waste, and offering efficient thermal insulation.

More than 230 Brazilian companies move production to Paraguay, pay a tax rate close to 12%, compared to about 80% in Brazil, and use Mercosur to sell back to the domestic market without import tax.

Dredged material from navigation channels restores life to Poplar Island, reconstructs 1,715 acres of land, expands open water zones, and creates a refuge for hundreds of migratory and local bird species.

About 500 kilos of green stones with juvenile algae are spread in the ocean to regenerate underwater forests, reduce costs, and accelerate the restoration of marine habitats.
