Following Shell’s Steps Towards Expanding Its Service Portfolio in Brazil, Statoil Is Not Holding Back and Is Increasing Its Presence in the Brazilian Oil and Gas Market.

Statoil will undoubtedly be one of the major players in the Brazilian oil and gas sector. Its acquisitions and participation in oil auctions leave no doubt in this regard. It has been acquiring assets and wells in several of our sedimentary basins, alongside Shell and Exxon Mobil. Although the name “Statoil” is strong in the market, it ultimately changed to “Equinor” due to its expansion into new areas of operation for the company.

Last week, Statoil began the environmental licensing process for 5 wells in the pre-salt region of Carcará, in a concession from the 2nd pre-salt auction in 2017, and the company’s logistical operations base will be in Niterói, RJ, at the Brasco base. To give you an idea, the company waited for the completion of seismic surveys in the area to ensure the geological potential; this was the strategy adopted by Shell; otherwise, “the government could get greedy” and raise rates or taxes on these assets if the seismic data revealed greater potential than offered in the auctions.

Statoil is currently drilling in the exploratory block BM-S-8 at Carcará, with operations planned for 4 years. Seadrill signed with the company and will use the West Saturn rig to drill some of these assets for testing; if all goes well, it will use this offshore unit for 6 more wells over the duration of the contract. We have followers working on this rig; check out some of them in this Seadrill recruitment article..

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.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Four times faster than the Concorde, capable of taking passengers from New York to London in less than an hour at Mach 5.5, and with an engine that switches from turbojet to ramjet mid-flight at Mach 3.5, the Hermeus Quarterhorse went from paper to its first flight in just 19 months.

Under nearly 2 kilometers of ice in Antarctica, scientists have discovered an ancient landscape sculpted by rivers up to 60 million years ago, the size of Wales, preserved as a time capsule that could help predict the advance of ice towards the ocean.

She started by collecting oyster shells from restaurants and today she has already accumulated more than 10 tons to restore reefs, recover coastal habitats, and demonstrate how a common waste can become a tool for ocean conservation.

SpaceX will dock a $843 million vehicle to the International Space Station to push a nearly 420-ton laboratory against the atmosphere and make the debris fall in a controlled manner into the ocean.

For the economist José Kobori, the USA gained a trump card to “blackmail” Brazil and undermine China’s influence by classifying the PCC and Comando Vermelho as terrorists, increasing the power to pressure companies, banks, and even Pix.
