Petrobras Forms Partnership with Petrogal, Repsol, and Shell to Share Offshore Pre-Salt Gas Pipeline Infrastructure and Promises to Make the Natural Gas Market in Brazil More Competitive

An important step towards opening the gas market in Brazil may be finalized this Wednesday (30). Petrobras announced that it will sign an agreement to formalize a milestone in building a more competitive sector: the sharing of natural gas transportation and processing infrastructures in offshore pre-salt pipelines.

In a webinar to be held later today (30), the state-owned company will sign contracts with Petrogal Brasil, Repsol Sinopec Brasil, and Shell Brasil, companies that own offshore pre-salt pipelines in the Santos Basin. The virtual event will be attended by the president of Petrobras, Roberto Castello Branco, as well as executives from Shell, Repsol, and Galp Energia.

“The transportation and processing agreements will be a milestone in opening Brazil’s natural gas market. They demonstrate the commitment of all partners to contribute to the development of a competitive and sustainable market in the country,” said Petrobras CEO, Roberto Castello Branco.

Contracts Include Integrated Systems for Pre-Salt Natural Gas

According to Petrobras, the contracts will enable the inclusion of the Integrated Natural Gas Transportation System (SIE), which will allow physical interconnection and sharing of transportation capacities in routes 1, 2, and 3, and the Integrated Natural Gas Processing System (SIP), which will provide companies access to Petrobras’s processing units in Caraguatatuba (SP), Cabiúnas, and Itaboraí (RJ).

The combination of the SIE and SIP systems is another fundamental milestone for companies to market their volumes of natural gas from pre-salt offshore assets directly to their customers, according to Petrobras.

In compliance with commitments made to the Administrative Council for Economic Defense (CADE) in July 2019, this decision is part of a series of measures to make it feasible to diversify agents, which may result in increased competition and a reduced participation of Petrobras in the natural gas chain in Brazil.

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.

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.

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 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.

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.

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.

A surreal road in southern Brazil cuts through the Serra do Corvo Branco, revealing mountains that resemble pyramids, cliffs used in commercials, and a Santa Catarina village marked by a sad history before the access was fully paved.

Webb found a cradle of planets 5,550 light-years away where water almost disappears, and the disk around the star XUE 10 has CO₂ in regions where rocky worlds like Earth should be born, revealing a planetary chemistry very different from that which formed our Solar System.

Couple transforms abandoned land in Portugal, moves a 6-ton tiny house, hides a container on the slope, and builds a 50 m² deck in two days while advancing on the main house surrounded by glass and nature.

Giant trucks with no one in the cabin have already moved more than 8.6 billion tons of rock and ore around the world, equivalent to more than a thousand Great Pyramids, all without a single recorded injury.
