The investment is of approximately USD 9 billion. Located in the Campos Basin, BM-C-33 comprises three different pre-salt discoveries – Pão de Açúcar, Gávea and Seat – containing natural gas and oil/condensate recoverable reserves above one billion barrels of oil equivalent. The concept selected for BM-C-33 is based on an FPSO (Floating production storage and offloading unit), capable of processing gas and oil/condensate and specifying these for sale without a need for further onshore processing. The FPSO’s production capacity is of 16 million cubic meters of gas per day with average exports expected of 14 million cubic meters of gas per day. Start-up is planned in 2028. “BM-C-33 is one of the main projects in the country to bring new supplies of domestic gas, being a key contributor to the further development of the Brazilian gas market. Gas exported from the project could represent 15% of the total Brazilian gas demand at start-up. Its development will also contribute to the energy security and economic development, enabling a lot of new job opportunities locally,” says Veronica Coelho, Equinor’s Country Manager in Brazil. Technology and low carbon initiatives driving the project BM-C-33 will be Equinor’s second FPSO in Brazil using combined cycle gas turbines, significantly reducing carbon emissions during operations. The technology will also be applied in Bacalhau, in the Santos Basin, and it combines a gas turbine with a steam turbine to take advantage of the excess heat that would otherwise be lost. By implementing this technology, the average CO2 intensity of BM-C-33 over its lifetime will be lower than 6 kilos per barrel of oil equivalent. BM-C-33 will be the first project in Brazil to treat the gas offshore and be connected to the national grid without further onshore processing. The sales gas is planned to be exported through a 200 kilometres offshore gas pipeline from the FPSO to Cabiúnas, in the city of Macaé, in the state of Rio de Janeiro. Liquids are planned to be offloaded by shuttle tankers. Equinor Brasil Energia Ltda., a subsidiary of Equinor ASA, has entered into agreements(1) with Brazilian company Prio Tigris Ltda., a subsidiary of PRIO SA (PRIO3.SA) for a sale of its 60% operated interest in the Peregrino field in Brazil. 30 April 2025 Equinor delivered adjusted operating income* of USD 8.65 billion and USD 2.25 billion after tax in the first quarter of 2025. Equinor reported net operating income of USD 8.87 billion and net income at USD 2.63 billion. Adjusted net income* was USD 1.79 billion, leading to adjusted earnings per share* of USD 0.66. 30 April 2025 Equinor (OSE: EQNR, NYSE: EQNR) will after the annual general meeting 14 May 2025 commence the second tranche of up to USD 1,265 million of the share buy-back programme for 2025, as announced in relation with the first quarter results 30 April 2025.

The Sugarloaf Cable Car Park claims sound tests indicate “the noise produced by the attraction is imperceptible in the surroundings.” Critics remain dubious You can’t really keep quiet,” Teixeira said Zipline riders yelling during the 50-second descent can scare animals away from their natural habits a lawyer who coordinates the Sugarloaf Without Zipline legal working group physiology and reproductive success of several species,” she told Mongabay by phone At least 14 trees were removed to construct the zipline, five of which were native species. The Sugarloaf Cable Car Park says “The impact of the installation of the zipline is minimal and has been approved by the competent environmental agencies.” However critics say a detailed environmental report was not conducted and a list of all vegetation impacted by the project was not presented “What was expected was a technical report that mentioned the peculiarities of the types of vegetation in rocky outcrops The Sugarloaf Cable Car Park assures that the community was consulted and the zipline doesn’t affect any climbing routes Any modifications to the Sugarloaf would need to go through an “extremely exhaustive process” of sharing information with representatives of civil society Mountaineers also claim they didn’t have a say in the discussion and that the construction obstructs important climbing routes “The mountaineering federation [FEMERJ] did not publicize this whole project very well and kind of accepted it after a brief meeting,” Felipe Rossi adding that this approval was made “without consulting the mountaineers who actually use this space.” The construction modifies two key climbing routes “We are very sad about all this; we love the Sugarloaf so much,” he said It’s sad to see it being turned into a shopping mall [and] seeing it being destroyed just for profits.” the zipline is already in the advanced stages of construction and all licenses have been authorized Rio de Janeiro City Hall told Mongabay in an emailed statement there has been no record of noncompliance with any condition of the project’s license,” according to their statement The Sugarloaf Without Zipline collective also delivered a dossier to the UNESCO headquarters in Paris outlining the interventions undertaken on the natural monument as well as officially reporting the construction to Brazil’s Federal Public Ministry detailing the potential impacts of the zipline and the potential damage that could be caused by additional projects Protestors hope such action will bring the construction to a halt and prompt the recovery of any damage caused by drilling into the two hills “We have the expectation that the report made before the Federal Public Ministry will lead to a public civil action for the immediate suspension of the zipline construction,” Vizintini said “And to reject the plans for subsequent projects that seek to mischaracterize the Sugarloaf and Urca Hill.” Banner image: A view across the bay with the taller Sugarloaf on the left and the Urca Hill on the right The construction plan connects the zipline between the two peaks The vegetation of granite rock outcrops in Rio de Janeiro FEEDBACK: Use this form to send a message to the author of this post The “fortress conservation” model is under pressure in East Africa as protected areas become battlegrounds over history and global efforts to halt biodiversity loss Mongabay’s Special Issue goes beyond the region’s world-renowned safaris to examine how rural communities and governments are reckoning with conservation’s colonial origins and trying to forge a path forward […] The Brazilian supermarket industry is a critical component of the country’s retail market marked by significant revenues and widespread consumer engagement The largest supermarket chains in Brazil command substantial market shares driven by a mix of local and international brands that cater to diverse consumer needs through various store formats Here’s a look at the most prominent supermarket chains in Brazil: Originally from Chile, Cencosud has made substantial inroads into the Brazilian market by acquiring several local supermarket chains such as Bretas, G.
