The Grove GRT9165 is one of Manitowoc USA’s highest-capacity rough terrain units and is the first of its kind to go to Brazil, where it will be used for fueling and maintenance operations on offshore oil rigs in the state of Rio de Janeiro.

It was delivered directly to an offshore support base in Niterói by the American manufacturer in February 2020, where it will remain for two years. It will be used exclusively by a Transdata Engineering client specializing in supply and maintenance support for offshore platforms and other oil and gas infrastructures.

Annual Oil Production Hitting Records

According to data from the National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP), in 2019 Brazil surpassed 1 billion barrels in annual offshore oil production for the first time – a 7.78% increase from the previous year. In 2020, the country is expected to produce even more, despite the disruptions caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.

“We feel that the oil and gas sector is coming back strong in Brazil,” adds Gaeta. “Many operations that were halted in recent years are being resumed. If it weren’t for the pandemic, I believe we would be in an even better position.”

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.

The Soviet Union spent 22 years drilling into the Earth’s crust and reached a depth of 12,262 meters — they found water where it was thought impossible, hydrogen bubbling from the rock, granite that is 2.7 billion years old, and temperatures of 180 degrees that melted the drill bits.

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.

A German architect built a cylindrical house in 1994 that rotates to follow the sun throughout the day, generates 5 times more energy than it consumes, and was the world’s first energy-positive house.

Two African countries will inaugurate in 4 days an 825-meter bridge suspended 90 meters high over a reservoir — it is the largest of three bridges of a megaproject that will supply millions of people.

Brazil spent R$ 1.9 billion on a giant bridge to Paraguay, and it is already finished, but no one can use it properly because the access points are not ready, and traffic remains blocked months later.

Free flow toll becomes more expensive at six gantries in Serra Gaúcha and Vale do Caí starting this Thursday, with an annual readjustment authorized by AGERGS raising Category 1 tariffs and making travel more expensive on the highways administered by CSG.

A 1982 plane crash became a breaking point for Trio Parada Dura, left Barrerito paraplegic, marked the most iconic formation of sertanejo in the 1980s, and paved the way for the separation that would change the group’s history.

The Brazilian solar market grew 400% with batteries — and most Brazilians still don’t know what this will do to their electricity bill…

Bankruptcy of a plastics industry company leads a Joinville factory, valued at R$ 35.9 million, to judicial auction, with a 16,600 m² property, 6,300 m² built area, and machinery included in the sale, following a decision by the Minas Gerais Court.
