Competition for Space Between Fishing and Exploratory Oil Drilling, Observed From a Drilling Platform in the Espirito Santo Basin, Southeastern Brazil

Abstract: A B S T R A C TFishing and oil drilling compete for space in some regions off the Brazilian coast. Fish congregate around drilling platforms, which attracts fishing vessels that may illegally breach the 500 m safety perimeter. The objective of this study was to identify the fleets that frequent the safety zone of a platform and their behavior and to determine if there was a seasonal relationship in this interaction, during two exploration campaigns, in different periods, carried out on the "Ocean Star" platfor… Show more

“…The coastal regions of Brazil are characterized as areas of intense economic and social activity (Lacerda et al 2008), with estuaries and bays being the most explored environments. In view of this, these sites have been used as important areas for industrial and port development, and they stand out as a significant source of mineral resources, including oil and natural gas (Silva et al 2015). They are also places for the development of flora and fauna that are indispensable for the functioning of the planet (Barbier et al 2008).…”
