Status: approve
PMAIS strengthens environmental governance by assessing cumulative socio-environmental impacts of Brazil’s maritime oil and gas sector through integrated data analysis.
The Macrorregional Plan for the Management of Synergistic Impacts of Maritime O&G Production and Transportation Activities represents a new approach developed by Brazilian Institute of Environment and Renewable Natural Resources since 2019, in coordination with O&G operationalcompanies and implementing entities in federal environmental licensing. In its implementation phase, integrates actions of identification, georeferencing, monitoring, assessment, communication, and mitigation of socio-environmental impacts in five Brazilian states. Furthermore, the program is structured into 13 programs distributed across four conceptual axes the plan highlights the Macrorregional Program for Socio-Environmental Impact Assessment (PMAIS), responsible for the critical interpretation of indicators wich are calculated by the characterization programs, correlating those with the observed phenomena and complementary data, to analyze cumulative socio-environmental impacts of the O&G production and transportation chain. In addition, PMAIS’s main product is the Socioeconomic Yearbooks, which analyzes the dynamics of the O&G industry, enabling the understanding of territorial variations through conceptual and methodological references. The analysis is supported by the Socioeconomic Database, which ensures standardized integration of data. In the program, this methodological architecture, combined with interinstitutional governance, strengthens analytical capacity, the transparency on decisions-making, and the integrated environmental governance, contributing to more effective mitigation actions
