The Ship-Platform, FPSO Almirante Barroso, Operating in the Búzios Field, in the Pre-Salt of the Santos Basin, Reached a Historical Milestone in Oil Production, Reaching 150 Thousand Barrels of Oil per Day (BPD) in Less Than Five Months from the First Oil.

The FPSO Almirante Barroso, a ship-platform operating in the Búzios field, located in the pre-salt of the Santos Basin, achieved an impressive milestone, reaching a daily production of 150 thousand barrels of oil in just 146 days. A remarkable feat for the oil exploration industry oil. This achievement, obtained last Tuesday (10/24), is a testament to Petrobras’ commitment to efficiency and the use of advanced technologies.

The Almirante Barroso Ship-Platform surpassed all expectations, reaching its maximum production capacity in record time, taking less than five months since the start of production.

The previous record, held by the FPSO P-76, also in the Búzios field, was surpassed, as it took less than eight months to reach its maximum capacity.

The Director of Engineering, Technology and Innovation at Petrobras, Carlos Travassos, highlighted the dedication of the technical team and the adoption of new technologies, stating that they plan to continue achieving exceptional results in Búzios.

Petrobras plans to deploy eleven units with high production capacity, equipped with the latest decarbonization technologies in the Búzios field.

In addition to the record set by the FPSO Almirante Barroso, other notable records have been achieved in the Santos Basin.

The FPSO P-76, in the Búzios field, reached its peak production in less than eight months.

Meanwhile, the FPSO Guanabara, in the Mero field, also in the Santos Basin, achieved its maximum capacity in 249 days, producing an impressive 180 thousand barrels of oil daily.

Petrobras and its partners continue to lead the oil exploration industry, demonstrating ongoing success and innovation in the pre-salt of the Santos Basin.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

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.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

Engineers had to pour concrete mixed with tons of ice throughout entire nights in the Dubai desert to erect the Burj Khalifa; any carelessness could clog the pipes half a mile high.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.

Almost 100,000 gallons of cheese brine are spread on frozen roads to melt ice, reduce industry waste, and save millions on road salt.

Registrations for Enem 2026 enter the final stretch and thousands of students have not yet confirmed participation.

FIOL, a 1,527 km railway that will cut through Bahia to Tocantins and open an Atlantic outlet for Brazilian commodities, gains another confirmed section of 35.7 km with 2,400 direct jobs and a tight deadline of December.

The world’s largest ship already has a date to arrive in Brazil and will disembark 7,200 BYD cars in a gigantic operation that will mobilize 150 workers, dozens of car carrier trucks, and change the routine of an entire city in SC.
