In total, 40.1 million barrels were processed during the month of April, compared to 54.3 million recorded in March.

The largest drop was observed in aviation kerosene production. In the period in question, the production of the derivative plummeted by 82%, totaling only 537 thousand barrels compared to 2.9 million recorded in the previous month. According to ANAC (National Civil Aviation Agency), demand for domestic flights in April fell by 93.1% and for international trips by 96.1%.

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.

Again the Chinese: China becomes the first country to mass-produce the world’s strongest carbon fiber

Renault 4 electric gets Plein Sud version with a fabric roof that opens 92 cm, starting at €37,290 and featuring 28 driving assistants in a nostalgic bid to drive in the open air without sacrificing interior space.

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

MIT prototype uses AI, camera, and electrical muscle stimulation to help a person draw, play simple notes, and perform technical gestures with their hand.
