Brazil’s oil giant Petrobras should increase its efforts to boost natural gas supplies and lower prices to help revive the nation’s industry, said mines and energy minister Alexandre Silveira.
zilian state-owned oil and gas giant Petrobras has made an oil discovery at another well in the Equatorial Margin, which stretches along the Brazilian coast from Rio Grande do Norte to Amapá.
Brazilian state-controlled company Petrobras saw earnings down in the final quarter of 2023, as results were affected by the depreciation of Brent crude prices and lower oil products margins.
Brazilian oil and gas major Petrobras – together with partners Shell Brasil, TotalEnergies, China’s CNPC and CNOOC, and the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS) – has kicked off a series of wind measurements in Brazil’s pre-salt region to collect data for potential offshore wind projects in Búzios and Mero fields.
U.S. oilfield services company Halliburton Co. has announced that it will partner with the Libra Consortium, led by Petrobras, to develop a digital twin for the Mero pre-salt field system in Brazil.
A digital twin spans the lifecycle of the actual system, or object it represents, uses simulation, machine learning and reasoning to help decision making and is updated using real-time data.
Other than creating a single, secure repository for all asset documentation, digital twins can have a positive impact on the operational efficiency, cost, reliability and agility of oil and gas companies.
Brazil’s state-run oil giant Petrobras is preparing to file a request to appeal a decision to reject the environmental license for exploratory drilling in the deep waters of the Amapa at the mouth of the Amazon.
BRASíLIA, May 9, 2023 – Petrobras’ Anna Nery FPSO has begun production at the Marlim and Voador offshore fields on the Campos Basin in Brazil, the Brazilian NOC announced on Monday.
