... Abstract Over the last few years, Petrobras has sought to reduce divers’ exposure to risk, as well as reduce this dependence on human diving in its underwater activities and reducing critical resources that impact underwater interconnections. A subsequent de-risking phase of the principal...

... and depending on the reservoir pressure, temperatures could drop as low as -20/-35°C. In a less probable scenario of a sudden exposure of the CO 2 in the well to the atmospheric pressure, the expansion could produce a further reduction in temperature due to Joule-Thomson (J-T) effect reaching a theoretical...

These risks are typically caused by manual handling of NORM contaminated solids (Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material), H2S, Benzene and other hazardous by-products of produced oil and gas. Improved methods, and technologies, for handling solids have fully removed this exposure by using...

... Abstract Capital-intensive projects are inherent to the oil industry, which requires large upfront capital expenditure and long-term paybacks. Diversification strategies are regularly used by oil companies to avoid high exposure to big projects and their geological, fiscal, cost, and political...
