For the last couple of decades, the petroleum industry has been applying biotechnology to solve problems related to its core activities and to open new business opportunities. This paper shows some biotechnology applications in the oil industry in the last decade. Two main company models were identified. The first type (ExxonMobil and Petrobras, e.g.), uses the biotechnology in its core business with low number of patents. The other one (Nippon, Japan Energy, and Mitsubishi, e.g.) shows little interest in core business applications, with high number of patents in biotechnology areas such as pharmaceuticals, food, agriculture etc. v. 5, p. 220 CONGTP Seabra, Paulo Negrais C. 10241 Rey da Silveira, Celso Luis 10242 Bomtempo Martins, José Vitor 10243 Petrobras 547 World Petroleum Congress (16th. : 2000 jun. 11-15 : Calgary, Alberta, Canada) 34 Rey da Silveira, Celso Luis 10242 Bomtempo Martins, José Vitor 10243 Petrobras 547 Seabra, Paulo Negrais C. 10241 133719 133719 0 0 0 0 204638 BAAB BAAB CD W938 1 0013960 2026-03-04 200006270 0 CD W938 1 0013960 200006270 2026-03-04 14:03:42 2026-03-04 ARCHIVO
