O presente texto tem o propósito de discutir uma questão candente do debate energético da atualidade: um país seria abençoado por dispor de ricas reservas de petróleo e gás ou as fartas rendas provenientes de sua exploração produziriam uma espécie de “maldição” por limitarem a expansão de outros setores produtivos? A avaliação dos impactos dessa indústria é complexa, por existirem profundas distinções entre os processos de mudança que é capaz de provocar no plano nacional ou nas áreas em que se localiza. O texto é centrado na análise das fases de exploração e produção, onde ocorrem os maiores investimentos e se registram os mais significativos efeitos multiplicadores dessa indústria, tendo como referência o caso brasileiro. Existindo ainda no Brasil a peculiaridade das principais ocorrências serem na plataforma continental marítima, com marcada concentração da produção na Bacia de Campos, os impactos regionais da indústria são analisados tomando-se o caso da região Norte Fluminense como base empírica de referência. Palavras-chave: indústria de petróleo; investimentos petrolíferos; impactos regionais; Norte Fluminense; efeitos multiplicadores. Abstract: This text aims to discuss a weighty issue of the current energy debate: having rich reserves of oil and gas would be a blessing for a country or the hefty revenues of the exploration of these resources would produce some kind of “curse” by limiting the expansion of other productive sectors? The evaluation of the impacts of this industry is complex for existing deep differences between the changing processes that they can be able to cause in a national level or in the areas they are located in. The text is focused in the phases of exploration and production, in which occur the major investments and are noticed the most significant multiplying effects of this industry, having the Brazilian case as reference. As Brazil has the peculiarity of having the main occurrences in the offshore continental platform, with stressed concentration of the production in Campos Bay, the regional impacts of the industry are analyzed having the case of the North of Rio de Janeiro State as an empirical database of reference. Keywords: oil industry; oil investments; regional impacts; North of Rio de Janeiro State; multiplying effects.

O texto apresenta os resultados da pesquisa "Empresas e empresários do Norte Fluminense", região localizada ao norte do Estado do Rio de Janeiro, hoje responsável por 80% da produção de petróleo e de 42% do gás brasileiros. No início das atividades petrolíferas na região, as empresas locais não apresentavam condições de suprir as demandas do se tornem mesmo nas tarefas mais simples. Após três décadas, o quadro empresarial local mudou, embora pouco ainda se conheça desse novo perfil. O objetivo da pesquisa foi então o de definir o perfil empresarial regional e analisar como as empresas interagiam com a região. O texto tem como base o resultado das entrevistas obtidas com empresários e diretores, em pesquisa de campo desenvolvida na região.Palavras-chave: petróleo; cadeia produtiva do petróleo; Norte Fluminense; empresas regionais; perfil regional. Abstract: The text shows the results of the research “Companies and Undertakers from Norte Fluminense”, a region located in the north part of Rio de Janeiro state, which is nowadays responsible by 80% and 42% of oil and gas production in Brazil, respectively. At the beginning of oil-bearing activities in that region, the local companies didn’t have any conditions to attend the necessities of the sector, even in the more simple tasks. After three decades the local corporations passed by an important change, although its new profile is still unknown. The research objective was so to define the new regional profile and to know how the companies interacted with the region. The text is based in the results of interviews which were made with undertakers during field researches carried out in the region. Keywords: oil; oil productive chain; Norte Fluminense (Rio de Janeiro state north part); regional companies; regional profile.

Geological modelling is an important topic of oil and gas exploration and production. A new knowledge driven methodology of geological modelling is proposed to address the problem of “hard data” limitation and modelling efficiency of the conventional data driven methodology. Accordingly, a new geological modelling software (DMatlas) (V1.0, Dimue, Wuhan, China) has been developed adopting a grid-free, object-based methodology. Conceptual facies models can be created for various depositional environments (such as fluvial, delta and carbonates). The models can be built largely based on geologists’ understandings with “soft data” such as outcrops analysis and geological maps from public literatures. Basic structures (fault, folds, and discrete fracture network) can be easily constructed according to their main features. In this methodology, models can be shared and re-used by other modelers or projects. Large number of model templates help to improve the modelling work efficiency. To demonstrate the tool, two case studies of geological modelling with knowledge driven methodology are introduced: (1) Suizhong 36-1 field which is a delta depositional environment in Bohai basin, China; (2) a site of the north Oman fracture system. The case studies show the efficiency and reliability within the new methodology.

ABSTRACT The ROPME sea area as defined in this paper is the scene of some of the world's most intensive offshore oil exploration and production and the associated crude oil refining and tanker terminaling for oil exportation. The potential for oil pollution in the area is high, with its confined nature making it especially vulnerable to the effects of oil pollution. Awareness of this problem is well developed in the region in both government and industry, and good progress has been made in recent years toward preparing for the big oil spill which has so far not materialized, but which most experts consider inevitable at some time. Two distinct groups share the concern for oil pollution. The oil industry has well over 40 companies active in the area in some way. Many of these have a 15 year history of cooperation in oil spill response and continue to play a full role in protecting the environment from the adverse effects of oil pollution. More recently, nations bordering the area have taken an active interest in the problem and have demonstrated an impressive record of commitment and action over the past five or six years. While government and industry have maintained their separate identities, a good working relationship exists between them, and there is good information exchange and practical cooperation between the two groups, most especially at the national level. Future years should see this trend develop even further. A very impressive arsenal of oil pollution response equipment has been built up in the sea area since two major oil spill incidents in 1980. What is especially noticeable now is the proportion of this equipment that is owned and operated directly by the government agencies. This stands in marked contrast to the situation in 1980. In addition to the equipment resources available, the pool of personnel trained in oil spill response technology and methods is rapidly expanding as a result of seminars, workshops, and training courses that are being organized on a regular basis. The development of national and regional legislation to control the main sources of man-made pollution, for example, from tanker operations and offshore exploration and production, is in a very active stage and the oil industry is expected to have clear operational guidelines within the next few years.

 RESUMO - A adequação do arranjo populacional está entre as técnicas que podem maximizar a produtividade da cultura do milho. Daí a importância das pesquisas que buscam estudar o desempenho de cultivares de milho e milhos especiais, a fim de determinar o arranjo de plantas ideal. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o desempenho da variedade UENF-14, de milho pipoca, cultivada em diferentes arranjos populacionais, na safra e safrinha, para otimizar a recomendação fitotécnica para os produtores rurais do Norte Fluminense. Foram instalados dois experimentos em Campos dos Goytacazes-RJ. Um na safrinha 2011 utilizando a variedade UENF-14 e o híbrido experimental P2 x P9, e o outro na safra 2011-2012, com a variedade UENF-14 e o híbrido comercial IAC-112. O delineamento experimental, nos dois experimentos, foi o de blocos casualizados arranjados em parcelas subsubdivididas, em que as parcelas foram compostas pelos genótipos, as subparcelas constituídas pelos espaçamentos entre linhas de semeadura (0,45, 0,60 e 0,90 m) e as subsubparcelas compostas pelas densidades de plantas (60.000, 75.000 e 90.000 plantas ha-1). A UENF-14 apresentou desempenho superior aos híbridos, demonstrando seu potencial para cultivo na região Norte Fluminense. Houve aumento do rendimento de grãos com a diminuição do espaçamento entre linhas de plantio. Para a variedade UENF-14, a redução do espaçamento entre linhas de plantio foi vantajosa para a produção de grãos, independentemente da época de semeadura.Palavras-chave: Zea mays L., densidade de semeadura, espaçamento entre linhas, épocas de semeadura.  POPULATION ARRANGEMENT FOR THE VARIETY OF POPCORN UENF-14 ABSTRACT - The adequacy of the maize population arrangement is among the most important techniques for obtaining higher yields. Therefore, many researchers have been conducting an attempt to study the performance of corn and specialty corn. The objective was to evaluate the performance of the popcorn variety UENF-14 in different population arrangements, in the harvest season and off-season. Two experiments were carried out in Campos dos Goytacazes, North of Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil, in the off-season 2011, using the UENF-14 variety and the experimental hybrid P2 x P9, and in the season 2011-2012 using UENF-14 and the commercial hybrid IAC-112. The treatments were arranged in randomized complete block design with split plots, in which plots were composed by popcorn genotypes, the subplots consisting of three spacings between sowing lines (0.45, 0.60 and 0.90 m) and the subsubplots composed of three plants per hectare densities (60,000, 75,000 and 90,000 plants.ha-1). The variety UENF-14 presented higher performance than the hybrids, demonstrating its potential for recommendation to the North of Rio de Janeiro State. There was an increase of grain yield by reducing the spacing between the plants rows. The cultivation of the variety UENF-14 reducing the spacing between rows was advantageous for grain production, regardless of planting date.Keywords: Zea mays L., densities of plants, spacing between rows, sowing times.

Viticulture has proved to be an alternative for farmers in the northen and northwestern Rio de Janeiro State; however, the activity is still very recent and requires the development of agronomic and managerial techniques. Therefore, the objective of this work was to diagnose the production areas and the characteristics inherent to the inner and outer environment of this farming enterprise. It was observed that the grape-growing farms predominate in an average area of 1 hectare, with productivity between 20 and 25 t/ha, with offer in the harvest and in the off-season. The inner points are stronger than the weak ones, and can be adjusted with the joint execution of the viticulturists allied to the opportunities, such as agrotourism and the diversification of available cultivars that allow a greater offer of the product and minimize the inherent threats observed, such as climatic variations and the shortage of skilled labor. These identified points may indicate competitiveness strategies for the wine market in the studied regions.

Abstract Oil and Gas operations are now being "datafied." Datafication in the oil industry refers to systematically extracting data from the various oilfield activities that are naturally occurring. Successful digital transformation hinges critically on an organization's ability to extract value from data. Extracting and analyzing data is getting harder as the volume, variety, and velocity of data continues to increase. Analytics can help us make better decisions, only if we can trust the integrity of the data going into the system. As digital technology continues to play a pivotal role in the oil industry, the role of reliable data and analytics has never been more consequential. This paper is an empirical analysis of how Artificial Intelligence (AI), big data and analytics has redefined oil and gas operations. It takes a deep dive into various AI and analytics technologies reshaping the industry, specifically as it relates to exploration and production operations, as well as other sectors of the industry. Several illustrative examples of transformative technologies reshaping the oil and gas value chain along with their innovative applications in real-time decision making are highlighted. It also describes the significant challenges that AI presents in the oil industry including algorithmic bias, cybersecurity, and trust. With digital transformation poised to re-invent the oil & gas industry, the paper also discusses energy transition, and makes some bold predictions about the oil industry of the future and the role of AI in that future. Big data lays the foundation for the broad adoption and application of artificial intelligence. Analytics and AI are going to be very powerful tools for making predictions with a precision that was previously impossible. Analysis of some of the AI and analytics tools studied shows that there is a huge gap between the people who use the data and the metadata. AI is as good as the ecosystem that supports it. Trusting AI and feeling confident with its decisions starts with trustworthy data. The data needs to be clean, accurate, devoid of bias, and protected. As the relationship between man and machine continues to evolve, and organizations continue to rely on data analytics to provide decision support services, it is imperative that we safeguard against making important technical and management decisions based on invalid or biased data and algorithm. The variegated outcomes observed from some of the AI and analytics tools studied in this research shows that, when it comes to adopting AI and analytics, the worm remains buried in the apple.

We carried out a study on the anurofaunal community from an Atlantic Forest fragment (Monte Verde mountains) and the surrounding area in Cambuci municipality, Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil, which constitutes one of the largest fragments remaining in the largely deforested landscape of the northern portion of the State. We combined three sampling methods: plot sampling, transects and pit-fall traps. We recorded twenty species of amphibians, of which only eleven were found within the forest fragment (and five of these also occurred in the surrounding matrix). Two of the species recorded in the present study (Crossodactylus sp. and Ischnocnema cf. parva) may represent undescribed taxa. Our records expand the distribution range of one species (Scinax trapicheiroi) to the north, and fill a geographic distribution gap for another one (Ischnocnema oea). The estimated overall density of frogs living in the leaf litter of the fragment (based on results of plot sampling) was 3.1 individuals/100 m², with Haddadus binotatus being the most abundant species (2.4 individuals/100 m²). Comparisons of our data with those of other studies suggest that anuran communities in forest fragments ca. 1,000 ha or smaller may be severely limited in their richness, and often include a large proportion of species tolerant to open areas, such as many hylids. Our results show the importance of increasing knowledge about the anurofaunal community of the northern portion of the State of Rio de Janeiro and preserve the forest remnants that still exist in the region.
