After the discovery of pre-salt and the beginning of oil extraction in the coastal region of Brazil, many studies are being developed on this subject, mainly focusing on the exploration and production activities of oil and natural gas. However, in addition to studies on the technology used to extract oil from the pre-salt region, studies are also being conducted on the impacts that this activity will have. This project aims toshow the importance of studies on the reduction of environmental impacts. These impacts occur in the entire coastal region covered by the pre-salt, however the work focuses on the Santos Basin region and the environmental impacts resulting from the exploration and production activities of oil and natural gas in that region. It is necessary to analyze the impacts on environmental sustainability, as well as the social and economic impacts. Through this study, an action plan can be created and implemented and implemented through public policies and by private companies.
