PRIO Is Now the First Sponsor of Reação Offshore, a Project Aimed at Training Professionals for the Oil & Gas Sector

Rio de Janeiro, June 22, 2022 – PRIO, the largest independent oil & gas company in Brazil and a specialist in mature field recovery, is the first supporter of Reação Offshore – Talent Academy. The initiative, a partnership of the Todos na Luta and Reação Institutes, is a unique and innovative educational program that will offer courses for those interested in working in the oil & gas sector. Firjan SENAI will be responsible for the project’s technical training. Boxer Raff Giglio and judoka Flavio Canto are ambassadors for the initiative.

“Support from the private sector is essential for building this legacy that effectively contributes to training qualified professionals for the offshore industry. That is what motivates PRIO to embark on this project. We believe it is a great opportunity for professional development for those interested in working in the field and being part of the expansion of this sector in Brazil,” comments Francilmar Fernandes, operations director at PRIO.

Applications for the selection process are now open and can be submitted via the website www.reacaooffshore.com.br until July 3. Candidates must be over 18 years old and have completed a Technical High School Course in Mechanics, Industrial Automation, Electromechanics, Instrumentation, Chemistry, Petrochemistry, Electrical Engineering, and/or Electronics between January 2009 and the application deadline for the selection process.

The idea behind Reação Offshore is to train specialized labor to enter the job market and contribute to the sector’s development. The oil & gas segment remains strong and increasingly demands professionals for positions that continue to emerge. In addition to technical training, the course will also include socio-emotional classes to develop students’ soft skills.

The course will take place at four Firjan SENAI Units: Benfica (city of Rio), Caxias, Macaé, and Campos de Goytacazes. The curriculum includes technical and socio-emotional classes, which will be conducted in person at the participating locations, from Monday to Saturday, with morning, afternoon, and evening classes for 4 hours.

Classes will start on July 26 and run until November 12, lasting for 16 weeks. During this period, selected students will receive a monthly scholarship of R$ 600. Initially, there will be 190 spots available. Responsible for the professional training component of the Reação Offshore project, Firjan SENAI will provide its professional training methodology and the structure of its involved Units, including both laboratories and instructors. Always aligned with market demand, the entity establishes another partnership to train qualified professionals for the oil & gas sector.
