The operation included a shipment of 25 thousand cubic meters of diesel to the Aquatic Terminal of Guanabara Bay – RJ, from where the product was transported by ship to the Port of Paranaguá – PR.

The Duque de Caxias Refinery (Reduc) has the capacity to produce 150 thousand m³ of Diesel S10 per month. According to Petrobras’ report, until the first half of this year, the segregated internal logistics system for Diesel S10 operation only allowed pumping movements to distribution companies around the refinery.

About the Diesel Market

“The availability of this volume directly impacts the reduction of imported volume to meet the national diesel market and increases Petrobras’ competitiveness against sector importers,” stated the state-owned company in a communication.

According to Adriano Cesar de Medeiros Valentim, Production Scheduling Manager in the Industrial area, “given the recovery of the Diesel S10 market in Brazil, the discharge of S10 by Reduc to support cabotage areas or even to support markets with higher demand allows Petrobras to be even more competitive and increases the reliability of diesel supply, also enabling the refinery’s utilization factor to rise.”

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.

NASA announces the first interplanetary nuclear spacecraft in history destined for Mars and technology created to usher in a new era in deep space exploration: meet the SR-1 Freedom, equipped with a fission reactor and three helicopters inspired by Ingenuity to map Martian ice.

With 93 companies selling armored vehicles, aircraft, and monitoring systems to 148 countries, Brazil’s defense industry is doubling exports and is on track to break all records in 2026.

Brazil and Sweden finalize a military agreement to jointly train pilots, share experiences with the Gripen fighter, and allow Swedish crews of the KC-390 to train on Brazilian soil over the next two years.

Scientists warn that Earth’s oxygen has an expiration date and that the Sun itself will be responsible for ending the air we breathe by making photosynthesis impossible in about one billion years.

Science reveals that the error in the expansion of the cosmos is not a measurement flaw, but rather a sign that the universe may be hiding new physics capable of changing everything we know.
