(3) an increase in the national production of oil and gas through exploitation of offshore, mainly deepwater, fields, which make up most of the Brazilian reserves. The first two strategies failed, but the last one has been highly successful. Petrobras' accomplishments in deepwater production ...
With the decline in conventional light oil reserves worldwide, there is increasing attention on the development of alternative resources for oil production. Over 50% of global oil reserves are found as biodegraded heavy and superheavy oils found in vast tar sand deposits (...
