Petrobras aims to make viable up to 20 billion barrels of oil equivalent (boe) in its operated fields, by 2030, through its deposit recovery factor increase program, RES20. The program was created with a focus on adding new reserves and targets the company's major oil fields. To date, in almost seven decades of the company's operations in the sector, 23 billion boe have been produced. "The excellent quality assets in the pre-salt and the opportunity for technological development, with the application of high-resolution seismic represent levers to achieve this goal”, explains Petrobras Director of Exploration and Production, Fernando Borges. With RES20, the company is moving towards even better defined and detailed deposit models, focused on asset master plans. The use of artificial intelligence and the application of deep technical knowledge also help in the development of the best reservoir models for the industry, based on quality information. "We seek to increase the recovery factor of these fields, with profitability, maximizing the value of our assets," concludes Borges. Innovative technologies Innovation is key to achieving the RES20 objectives. Among the digital transformation projects that support RES20, the use of data science stands out to facilitate the search for project development opportunities, as well as artificial intelligence used to speed up processes. Cloud processing is also used to improve digital reservoir models. The use of augmented reality will allow a better visualization of the drainage networks of these reservoirs. Additionally, innovative technologies are present in the management of pre-salt and post-salt production, in the methods of pumping oil with greater power and in the application of advanced recovery methods.

innovative technologies
Innovation is key to achieving the objectives of RES20. Among the digital transformation projects that support RES20 is the use of data science to facilitate the search for project development opportunities, as well as artificial intelligence used in process acceleration. Cloud processing is also used to improve digital reservoir models. The use of augmented reality will allow a better visualization of the drainage patterns of these reservoirs.
In addition, innovative technologies are present in the management of pre-salt and post-salt production, in oil pumping methods with greater power, and in the application of advanced recovery methods.
