The Tatu is one of the most powerful supercomputers in the oil market, with processing capacity exceeding 2.4 Petaflops (Floating Point Operations Per Second), equivalent to 462 thousand cell phones or 12 thousand laptops, according to the state-owned company.

The supercomputer can perform complex simulations that will help the company explore and produce oil and gas more efficiently and sustainably.

The construction of the Tatu is part of Petrobras’s investment plan in technology and innovation. The company has been investing in other areas, such as artificial intelligence, big data, and robotics, to improve its operational efficiency and reduce costs.

The adoption of Artificial Intelligence for exploration solutions reinforces the company’s commitment to current technological advancements.

Furthermore, the Tatu can help Petrobras develop new technologies and solutions for the challenges faced by the oil and natural gas exploration industry, becoming a strong highlight for the company in the coming years.
