In this article, we take a deeper dive into High-Resolution Geochemistry While Drilling (HRGWD), a revolutionary new technology offered by Optimum that aims to detect, collect and analyze potential oils, condensates and gases from reservoir sections drilled by wells in a timely manner using organic extraction (Soxhlet) of plugs, cuttings and/or core reservoir

HRGWD is an innovative process and workflow that allows for the detection, collection and quick analysis and interpretation of potential oils, condensates and gases from drilled reservoir sections using organic extraction (Soxhlet) of plugs, cuttings and/or core reservoir samples. And with the correct logistics, operations managers will have previously unimagined insights

The BPS Geodatabase is hands down the most comprehensive and dynamic knowledge building tool for Brazilian petroliferous basins on the market. It is chalk-full of data and interpretation on all elements and processes related to the Petroleum Systems Approach, providing oil explorers and producers with an unmatched advantage in their E&P

BPS President Marcio Rocha Mello, together with Pinar Yilmaz, chaired the Brazil Panel Session: Exploration in the Santos Basin. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who helped make it a successful afternoon, but especially Rodolfo Henrique Saboia, General Director of ANP, whose presentation was a big hit at the conference. ANP

Environmental activism related to the petroleum industry in Brazil is consistently growing stronger, making it more important than ever to operate in harmony with the environment and society. Contrary to what some might think, Brazil has stringent and prescriptive regulation for sectors with the potential to generate adverse impacts on the environment. Brazilian environmental law can

The aggressive exploration and production campaign in the pre-salt Santos Basin over the last decade has led to the identification of important challenges for a better description of the elements and processes of the petroleum system in this prolific region. According to our recent study (to be published later this year
