The Forecast Is That Petrobras Would Start Activities in 2020, but the State-Owned Company’s Partner Operators Decided to Advance the Schedule

Petrobras’ drilling plans for the major discovery of Uirapuru, in the pre-salt of the Santos Basin, have been moved forward to this year instead of 2020, a fact that was confirmed in an official statement by ExxonMobil on August 2, a partner of the state company on the asset, along with Galp and Equinor. Now That Extraction Costs Are Lower (Learn Here Why), the schedule can be advanced.

“We are hopeful that this exploratory well in Uirapuru, which is close to Carcará, will be drilled with Petrobras in this second semester,” said ExxonMobil’s Vice President, Neil A Chapman.

According to previous studies, Uirapuru is expected to contain around 7.8 billion barrels of high-quality oil northeast of Carcará, as well as extraordinary reserves of natural gas, with lower levels of carbon dioxide, when compared to the pre-salt of Mero and Lula, operated by Petrobras and Total respectively.

In the cold desert of Ladakh, where it hardly rains, engineer Sonam Wangchuk created the ice stupa, a tower that freezes winter water and stores it for irrigating crops in the spring, a simple engineering feat that mimics nature.

Júlia Pimentel, an 11-year-old from Minas Gerais, independently invented a new formula to calculate the square root using simple addition and multiplication, and her method was published in one of the most important mathematical scientific journals in Brazil.

They planted a sea of eucalyptus to produce cellulose, but the monoculture turned into a green desert, dried up springs and rivers, and pushed families out of regions in Minas Gerais and Bahia.

The Atacama Desert, the driest place on Earth, was covered in flowers and turned into a colorful carpet with more than 200 species in the phenomenon called “desert bloom,” when atypical rains awaken seeds that had remained dormant in the soil for many years.

Without her own home and pressured by rent, a 25-year-old bought a small 15-meter boat, gradually renovated the interior by herself, transformed the interior with paint, new flooring, a larger bathroom, and started living on the canals, paying much less per month.

A city has planted 880,000 trees and 2.5 million smaller plants since 2016, reduced the temperature by up to 3°C in some areas, and won an international award for using vegetation to combat urban heat in Colombia.

Heir bought 23,000 degraded acres in the Scottish Highlands, fenced the area, planted nearly 1 million native trees, and transformed empty mountains into a forest officially recognized after meeting 15 evaluation criteria over 20 years.
