The Brand Occurs in the Same Year That Celebrates 20 Years Since the Signing of the Concession Contract for the Pre-Salt Block BM-S-11, Where the Petrobras Asset Is Located

In a statement released this Monday (28), Petrobras announced it has reached a cumulative production of 2 billion barrels of oil equivalent (boe) in July this year, in the Tupi field, located in the pre-salt of the Santos Basin. The state-owned company operates the asset with a 65% stake, in partnership with Shell Brasil Petróleo Ltda (25%) and Petrogal Brasil S.A. (10%).

Previously known as the Lula field, Tupi had its name changed by court decision on July 7, 2020, in a popular action, which determined the annulment of the area’s designation as the Lula field.

The concession began production of its first definitive system in 2010, with the operation of the FPSO Cidade de Angra do Reis, and is currently the largest oil and gas producing field in the country.

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.

Engineers had to pour concrete mixed with tons of ice throughout entire nights in the Dubai desert to erect the Burj Khalifa; any carelessness could clog the pipes half a mile high.

End of blind excavation: artificial intelligence detects pipes, cables, rocks, and voids before construction begins and promises to avoid million-dollar losses hidden underground.

Uranus and Neptune may not be the “ice giants” we learned about in school: new models suggest much rockier interiors, chaotic magnetic fields, and show that even the planets in our Solar System still hide structures that science cannot fully explain.

The United States is building an aircraft carrier that will never touch water: a ship that remains stationary in orbit, loaded with spacecraft, and opens its hull to release them in a matter of hours, ready to replace a downed satellite before the enemy notices.

Discover which are the highest-paying jobs in Brazil, with salaries above R$ 20,000, in fields such as technology, medicine, finance, and industry.
