Science, technology and cooperation with industry

Built over more than a decade of cooperation with Petrobras, this work covers the characterization of rocks and porous media, the interpretation of borehole images, the analysis of nuclear magnetic resonance signals and seismic modeling. The group combines knowledge of physical phenomena with computational methods to extract information from complex data, estimate properties and assess the reliability of interpretations.

The strength of this trajectory lies in the connection between scientific research, researcher training and innovation. Papers in international journals, dissertations, computational methods, in-house infrastructure and patent applications express an institutional capacity to investigate problems and develop solutions in collaboration with industry.

Two Petrobras Inventor Awards, including the 2026 recognition, reinforce this record of scientific and technological contribution by CBPF and LAB-IA to the sector.
