Solid Investments By Petrobras For The Next 4 Years

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.

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.

Spain installs two giant pipelines 2.2 km off the coast to draw water from the Mediterranean and supply a megafacility capable of producing 200 million liters of drinking water per day.

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.

Abandoned boars and pigs in Fukushima create fast-breeding hybrids and turn the nuclear area into a natural laboratory

A bi-oceanic railway is expected to connect the Brazilian coast to the Chinese port of Chancay in Peru and cross the South American continent from coast to coast. It is part of the same package of R$ 140 billion in railways that the government is opening to investors later this year.

Japan is about to launch a satellite that captures solar energy in space and sends electricity to Earth in the form of microwaves. The technology promises to generate energy 24 hours a day without relying on clouds, night, or solar panels on the ground.

Program with 630 free spots for female professional qualification expands access to strategic courses in high-demand areas and strengthens inclusion in the job market with practical training, professional certification, and new employment opportunities in different sectors.

A $5.5 billion plan aims to draw seawater in Mexico, desalinate it, and send it through a 320 km aqueduct to the USA, but the project has been stalled for years due to tensions between the two countries, costs ten times higher than the current ones, and risks to endangered species.
