💰 Attention Oil & Gas Lenders 💸 As our company continues to scale, we are actively expanding our network of capital partners, specifically those with experience in upstream oil and gas lending. Historically, we’ve worked with real estate-based lenders who have provided meaningful support. However, the complexity of oil transactions, especially those involving Upside, workover capital, or structured equity often exceeds the underwriting comfort zone of traditional real estate capital. We are now seeking to add to our roster lenders, funds, and private capital groups who understand the operational and financial nuances of oil and ...

Title: The Importance of Shut-In Time in Kick Control: Operational and Safety Implications Abstract: Shut-in time is one of the most critical factors in managing formation influxes (kicks) during drilling operations. An effective and prompt shut-in reduces the influx volume, facilitates pressure stabilization, and minimizes operational risks. This article analyzes the impact of shut-in time, its consequences on SIDPP/SICP readings, and the subsequent behavior of the kick in the annulus.

1. Introduction During drilling operations, the detection of a kick demands immediate shut-in of the well to prevent uncontrolled migration of formation fluids. The effectiveness of this response depends on how quickly the circulation is halted and the BOP (Blowout Preventer) is closed. 2. What is Shut-In Time? It is the interval between kick detection and the actual closure of the well. This time window directly influences the amount of formation influx and, therefore, the complexity of the subsequent control procedures. 3. Practical Example: Pressure Build-Up After Shut-In The table below shows how pressures in the drill pipe (SIDPP) and annulus ...

By Bruno Silva , Lucas dos Anjos, Cristiano Marino, Hernandes Coutinho Fagundes, and Vinicius Guedes Gusmão (Petrobras) Operating ROVs from land-based control centers is no longer theoretical — it’s operational. As part of its Remote Operations Strategic Initiative, Petrobras successfully piloted remote ROV inspections using high-speed 4G LTE links from onshore control rooms, delivering tangible gains in safety, efficiency, and scalability. Why It Matters Traditional subsea inspection methods rely heavily on offshore crews, incurring high operational costs and exposing personnel to risk. By shifting ROV control to onshore command centers (OCCs), Petrobras ...

By Bruno Silva , João Paulo Urbano, Gustavo Pinto Pires, Milton dos Santos, Samuell Costa de Souza, and Romario de Carvalho Nunes (Petrobras) Subsea pipeline integrity management is one of the most demanding challenges in offshore oil and gas. Over the last three years, Petrobras has led a transformative effort to improve ultrasonic thickness measurements (UTM) using Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs). The goal: ensure more reliable, accurate, and efficient inspections on critical subsea infrastructure. Why It Matters Subsea corrosion can lead to costly failures and unplanned shutdowns. Traditional UTM tools used by ROVs often struggled in severe corrosion ...

The discovery of vast pre-salt oil reserves off the Brazilian coast in the mid-2000s sparked both national optimism and international attention. With estimated production exceeding 5 million barrels per day by 2035, Brazil is poised to become a significant player among global oil exporters. However, this rise comes with questions: Will Brazil become a "Petro-State," economically dependent on oil revenues, or will it maintain its diversified economic base and avoid the resource curse? This article explores Brazil’s trajectory using data from the International Energy Agency (IEA), among others. Historical and forecasted production data reveal that Brazil has ...
