Reunião sobre revitalização de campos maduros em Macaé

Be the first to react!

On July 31, Macaé Will Have Its Future Decided in the Offshore Sector at a Meeting on the Revitalization of Mature Fields. Everything Is Favorable

The revitalization of mature fields in the Campos Basin Will Literally Be Macaé’s Salvation, according to industry experts. Many global companies have already confirmed that they will participate in the upcoming stages of exploratory block auctions organized by ANP between 2017 and 2019.

In the Campos Basin, there are exploration fields that have been in production since the 1980s and they are now entering decline due to the depletion of these wells. However, Petrobras along with other scientific organizations in the sector have discovered that it is possible to revitalize these same sources by employing new technologies. This is where Macaé comes into play!

Why Is Macaé Still the Focus of Companies?

Despite the entire economic crisis and recession, all technological/ industrial infrastructure in the oil and gas sector is still in the city. The Campos Basin remains a business hub worth billions of reais, and the employment potential will be approximately 25,000 jobs when this system is implemented.

Expectations

After all the agenda items from this meeting are resolved, only the permission from Petrobras to share and concession the production of these reserves in the mature fields with companies that already HAVE THE NECESSARY TECHNOLOGY TO REVITALIZE THEM will remain. Despite being in production for a long time, with the application of these new techniques, there will still be much oil to extract from these fields that were previously in a negative productivity vector. When Petrobras gives the “OK”, billions in investments will be instantly injected into the economy of the offshore oil and gas sector in the Campos Basin. As immediate as that, will be the opening of job vacancies, hiring, and reintegration of professionals laid off due to the crisis affecting the sector.

Macaé is undoubtedly still very important for the economic chain in the fossil fuels sector in Rio de Janeiro, in the country, and even internationally. The moment is now, and we hope to come with good news in the coming days.

Expectations

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

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.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Rice in space becomes a scientific bet for China to understand how microgravity can alter the genetics of the most important grain for Asian food security and reveal if future generations of the plant can be born, grow, and maintain their biological identity away from Earth.

How much would a Toyota Hilux cost without tax in Brazil? A diesel pickup truck priced at R$ 250,000 could drop to around R$ 127,000, showing why pickup trucks have become a luxury product in the country.

Windows without a prison-like appearance gain momentum in 2026 and promise to completely transform residential facades with more natural lighting, discreet security, increased property value, and a modern look without the burden of the old iron bars that dominated Brazilian homes for decades.

The largest precious metals mine under construction in the world is situated on a layer of ore 25 times thicker than common mines in South Africa, and has just connected a third shaft that will quintuple the extraction of platinum, palladium, and gold.

Kia emerges with the “ugliest pickup truck in the world”: even with a 2.2 turbo diesel engine with 210 hp, 4×4 traction, a capacity of 3.5 tons, and a goal of 20,000 annual sales, the Tasman sells only 320 units and becomes a problem for the brand in Australia.
