Session 1
Human Factors Ecosystem: Integrating Different Areas of Knowledge to Improve Operational Safety and Efficiency
- Chair: Rodrigo Jokubauskas | Diretor de Operações - Constellation
- Chair: Cristina Ramos | Diretora de Área da America Latina - Seadrill
- Technical Lead: Rafael Ceni | Gerente Executivo de QHSE - Constellation
Full Description
This session will address the concept of a Human Factors Ecosystem as a framework to enhance safety and operational efficiency in well operations.
Based on multidisciplinary approaches—including human reliability, process safety, risk analysis, and human factors engineering—we will explore how these disciplines can be integrated to address the increasing complexity of well operations in today’s oil and gas industry. Additionally, best practices within this ecosystem will be shared throughout the session.
The Human Factors Ecosystem not only improves safety and operational efficiency, but also makes organizations more intelligent, adaptable, and resilient in the face of a VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, and Ambiguous) and BANI (Brittle, Anxious, Nonlinear, and Incomprehensible) world.

Session 3
Are We Still the Same as Our Parents? Generational Differences in the Offshore Environment and Their Impact on Operational Safety
- Chair: Renato Costa | Diretor de Operações - Foresea
- Moderator: Claudia Vasconcellos | Consultora Técnica - Petrobras
- Moderator: João Guandalini | Gerente de Inovação - Foresea
Full Description
In a naturally cyclical industry like ours, it is common that, from time to time, we need to attract and develop new talent. But how can we do this in today’s context, where a career in Oil & Gas is no longer as attractive as it once was, and fewer young professionals are considering joining the industry?
How can we respond to the expectations and questions brought by this new generation, which at times challenge the status quo of drilling and the offshore environment? Can the coexistence between pre- and post-digitalization generations introduce risks to operations?
Is the generational gap truly a problem, or are we simply uncomfortable with being pushed out of our comfort zone? Ultimately, what is being done—and what still needs to be done—to increasingly attract young engineers and technicians, and ensure they are fully committed to operational safety in our industry?
Lecture 1:
Is Generational Conflict Really Something New in Our Industry?

Sessão 4
Energy Efficiency in Drilling: Innovations and Strategies for Emissions Reduction
- Chair: Viviana Canhão Coelho | Gerente Executiva de Mudanças Climáticas - Petrobras
- Chair: Rebeca Kipperman | Gerente de Sustentabilidade - Brava
- Technical Leads: Laura Musgueira | Consultora de Fluidos - Petrobras e Gabriela Brancaccio | Gerente de Sustentabilidade - Constellation
Full Description
The energy transition has been driving significant changes in the oil and gas industry. The current challenge is to balance the demand for operational efficiency with the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In this context, well construction is evolving through the development and adoption of cleaner technologies, automated systems, digital solutions, and advanced engineering strategies.
Additionally, practices such as trajectory optimization, reduction of drilling time, and efficient resource utilization contribute to aligning operations with the decarbonization agenda. In this session, we will explore the impacts on drilling contractors, innovative initiatives aimed at reducing emissions, and technologies applied to achieve greater energy efficiency.

Full Description
The oil and gas industry, considered highly hazardous, has been implementing a range of innovative solutions in the field of well operational safety aimed at reducing workers’ exposure to risk. Many of these solutions stem from the industry’s digital transformation, enabling greater accuracy in hazard identification, monitoring of behavioral deviations, faster alerts, and more effective risk mitigation.
Today and in the future, the automation of drilling rigs and well operations, collaborative robotics, generative AI, intelligent failure prevention monitoring, virtual reality, and many other cutting-edge technologies are expected to drive the industry to a new level of safety.
In this session, chairs, speakers, and exhibitors will discuss new implementations and future technology trends in response to the current and upcoming challenges faced by the industry.
