More Than 50,000 Barrels of Oil and 4 Million Cubic Meters of Gas Begin Processing

[supsystic-social-sharing id=’1′]Petrobras and its partners Shell, Total, CNPC, and CNOOC started production in the Libra block, in the pre-salt layer of the Santos Basin, on Sunday (11/26/2017), with the operation of the FPSO Pioneiro de Libra (floating unit that produces, stores, and transfers oil), dedicated to Long-Duration Testing and Early Production Systems. This is Petrobras’s first unit equipped to inject all the gas produced during the tests. So far, 12 wells have been drilled in the Libra block. Due to its magnitude, production potential, good oil quality, and high commercial value, Libra opens a new business opportunity in the offshore industry.

The Pioneiro de Libra has the capacity to process up to 50,000 barrels of oil and 4 million cubic meters of associated gas daily. With an expected duration of one year, the Long-Duration Test aims to evaluate the behavior of the oil reservoir and enhance knowledge of the field’s characteristics.

Remember that starting in 2018, the process of acquiring platforms for pre-salt production begins; even Jornal Nacional did a report on this topic last week. Twenty offshore units will arrive in Brazil, generating about 500,000 jobs throughout the oil production chain, both directly and indirectly. Check out the Jornal Nacional report here. Source: TNT

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows an unlikely oasis in the Saudi Arabian desert, protected by a terrain that slows the advance of sand, surrounded by green circles, remnants of an extinct lake and nearly 10,000 years of preserved history.

While the U.S. still faces limitations in deep space, China is developing unprecedented technology with strategic satellites that maintain communication with the far side of the Moon and aims for dominance by 2030.

In Botswana, a salt flat of up to 16,000 km² that was once an African megalake spends months as an absolute white desert, but during the rainy season it transforms into a shallow sea that reappears from nowhere and can be seen from space in the middle of southern Africa.

The Blood Falls of Antarctica hide a living ecosystem trapped under the ice for over 2 million years, where microbes survive without light, without oxygen, and without ever having seen the Sun.

Bavarian archaeologists unearthed a medieval skeleton that had an articulated iron hand in place of its left arm, and the discovery reveals that doctors were already creating sophisticated prosthetics over 500 years ago.

The CEO of Honor in Spain says that smartphones will change with AI, foldables, and even robot phones; the component crisis is making cheap models more expensive in 2026 and shifting the focus to premium.

In the asteroid belt, an “impossible comet” is releasing water vapor where it shouldn’t exist, and the James Webb telescope has revealed that primordial ice has survived for billions of years in a region that could rewrite the origin of water on Earth.

Mercedes has created an electric motor with over 1,000 horsepower that weighs only 12.7 kilograms — less than a suitcase and with the highest power density ever recorded.

At over 8 meters tall and resembling a trunk, this creature dominated the Earth 400 million years before the dinosaurs — and science still doesn’t know what it was.

China inaugurates a 24 km monster that is a bridge, tunnel, and museum at the same time — and 90,000 cars pass through it every day.
