ANP Recorded The Best August For The Refinery Since 2015 After Experiencing An Explosion And Fire Last Year

The Replan refinery in Paulínia, SP, has been on a rising production curve since December, achieving the highest production for August since 2015, according to ANP data. Even the maintenance shutdown did not hinder Replan’s production.
The refinery is Petrobras’ largest and processed 1.7 million cubic meters of oil. The plant’s output had been increasing, but with this result, it returns to the same level of production as before last year’s explosion.

Data from ANP shows the best August since 2015, see below the refinery’s production during this period since 2015:

August/2015: 1,877,263m³

The volume produced in July was also the highest when comparing it to the same period last year, and the most important figures indicate the resumption of the refinery’s production after the serious fire that affected one of the processing lines on the night of August 20, 2018.

Five months after the explosion, the refinery resumed operation at 100% capacity on January 25, 2019. Replan is responsible for 21% of all oil refining in Brazil and its product list is extensive, including gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), fuel oil, asphalt, and more.

The refinery’s production services the interior of São Paulo, southern Minas, the Triângulo Mineiro, and the states of Mato Grosso, Mato Grosso do Sul, Rondônia, Acre, Goiás, Brasília (DF), and Tocantins.

Gaddafi built the world’s largest artificial river under the Sahara — it’s 4,000 km of giant pipes that pump 40,000-year-old fossil water to entire cities in Libya.

Discovery in Africa scares even scientists: a study published on April 23 reveals that the crust in Turkana has become so thin that it could pave the way for the continent’s division and the emergence of an ocean in the future, in a gigantic geological transformation.

Japanese garbage collectors treat filthy trucks as if they were dealership cars, and the obsession with cleanliness is so absurd that they invented a washing machine that only exists for this type of vehicle.

Seen from high in the stratosphere, a Lego Star Devourers rose to 34,988 meters attached to a balloon, returned to Earth intact, and entered the Guinness World Records in a record that seems like science fiction.

In 1991, Brazil’s GDP was almost double India’s, and today it is little more than half: while India grew 6.5% per year and trained engineers, Brazil preferred to train lawyers, and now it is rushing to strengthen ties with the world’s fourth-largest economy.

India built a 21.8-kilometer sea bridge to connect Mumbai to Navi Mumbai, and a journey of up to 120 minutes fell to about 20.

South America’s most famous oasis has an emerald lagoon formed by underground waters in the Peruvian desert. It is located 300 km from Lima, is surrounded by giant dunes, and holds a mysterious mermaid legend.

Massive, isolated and with no crew on board, this “ghost” oil platform operates alone in the middle of the ocean and ushers in a new era in exploration.

Two cold waves are already scheduled to freeze Southern Brazil in the coming days, and one of them could arrive right on Mother’s Day with sub-zero temperatures.

Supermarkets want to create hourly employment in Brazil to compensate for the end of the 6×1 shift system, and the proposal has already been submitted to the Minister of Labor by the sector.

A strong cold front is advancing across Brazil now, but researchers warn that extreme heat is expected to increase, affect work capacity, reduce people’s income, and cause billion-dollar economic losses in the coming decades.

The fastest-growing risk in Brazilian cities isn’t only apparent during heavy rainfall; it has already increased by 145% since 1985, covers 1.2 million hectares, and can transform floods and inundations into an increasingly common threat.

Scientists warn that the Atlantic Ocean is silently losing oxygen, fish could disappear from entire areas, fishing could shrink drastically, and millions of people could feel a direct impact on their food supply in the coming years.
