Simultaneous Interpretation Sergipe
R$70 billion — investment announced by Petrobras, Brazil's new energy frontier.
Simultaneous interpretation in Sergipe — in-person and RSI
Simultaneous interpretation in Sergipe serves Petrobras's Sergipe Deep Waters Project, receiving R$70 billion in investments — R$60 billion in the exploration project alone, expected to raise the state to one of Brazil's top 3 oil producers — plus the Sergipe Oil & Gas event, already targeting R$200 million in business rounds.
Why lingo for Sergipe
Real deep-water oil and gas vocabulary
Technical FPSO, offshore exploration and decommissioning terms — built through real mandates in the energy sector.
RSI eliminates equipment logistics
The interpreter operates remotely, participants use their own phone — no freight for receivers, booths or transmitters to Aracaju.
Experience with international platform contracts
Petrobras contracted Dutch company SBM Offshore for the SEAP Project's platforms — lingo is prepared for technical negotiations with international suppliers.
Companies that require interpretation
| Company/Institution | Sector |
|---|---|
| Petrobras — SEAP Project | Oil and gas — R$70 billion invested, R$60bi in Deep Waters alone |
| SBM Offshore (Netherlands) | Supplier of P-81 and P-87 platforms for the SEAP Project |

Typical use cases
Sergipe Deep Waters Project — R$60 billion
SEAP plans two FPSO platforms with combined capacity of 240,000 barrels of oil and 22 million m³ of natural gas per day. Petrobras signed contracts with Dutch SBM Offshore for building the P-81 and P-87 units.
Carmópolis — Brazil's largest onshore field
Sergipe hosts Carmópolis, the country's largest onshore oil-producing field, accounting for 9.3% of all national onshore production — the state maintains 17 producing fields and is currently the 9th largest national producer.
Fafen-SE — Fertilizer production resumed
The nitrogen fertilizer plant resumed operations in December 2025, producing urea and ammonia — generating 530 direct and around 1,500 indirect jobs.
Sergipe Oil & Gas — Annual sector event
The state's main oil and gas supply chain gathering brings together around 70-90 exhibitors and targets R$200 million in business rounds at Aracaju's AM Malls Convention Center.
Main venues and event locations
The convention centers, hotels and venues that host the most international corporate events in the state.
Why RSI eliminates equipment logistics in Sergipe
The traditional model requires shipping receivers, booths and technicians to the state — freight, insurance and logistics costs. RSI eliminates all of that: the interpreter operates remotely, participants use their own phones.
No receiver, booth or transmitter needs to travel to Aracaju
Participants use their own phone — no receiver distribution
10 or 10,000 participants — same operating cost
1-2 second latency — same standard as physical receivers
Just needs internet — no technical installation

Frequently asked questions
Does lingo serve Sergipe with in-person interpreters?+
Yes. For events in Aracaju and other Sergipe cities where physical presence is essential, the interpreter travels to the event with full professional equipment. For events where physical presence isn't required, RSI is more economical and practical.
What is RSI (remote simultaneous interpretation)?+
RSI delivers interpretation remotely. The interpreter operates remotely, receives the event's audio in real time and delivers interpretation via BYOD (participant's phone) or screen. No physical receiver, no on-site booth — just a good internet connection.
Does lingo have interpreters specialized in offshore oil and gas?+
Yes. lingo covers technical deep-water exploration, FPSO and decommissioning vocabulary — developed through real mandates in the energy sector.
What's the cost difference between in-person and RSI for Sergipe?+
RSI eliminates airfare, lodging, equipment freight and technician daily rates — all costs of the in-person model. Use the automatic quote at lingo.com.br/orcamento to compare modalities.

Sergipe — Brazil's new energy frontier
Sergipe combines a century-old tradition in onshore oil production — the Carmópolis field is Brazil's largest onshore producer — with a future that could radically transform the state: Petrobras's Sergipe Deep Waters Project plans R$60 billion in investments and capacity for 240,000 barrels/day, enough to place Sergipe among the country's top 3 oil producers. Adding the resumed Fafen-SE and old platform decommissioning, Petrobras's total contribution to the state reaches R$70 billion.

How to hire — quote in 60 seconds
Reach out via WhatsApp (+55 11 97534-6423) or the calculator at lingo.com.br/orcamento. Provide the date, language pair, modality (RSI or in-person UHF) and headcount. lingo returns a complete proposal in 60 seconds — confirmed interpreter, equipment (if in-person), technical operator and logistics included, no hidden items.
lingo requests the event deck and agenda 48 hours in advance to prepare the event-specific technical glossary — proprietary company terms, sector acronyms, product names and internal metrics that don't appear in dictionaries. For recurring mandates, the glossary accumulates session by session. After 12 months of monthly boards, the interpreter knows the company's internal vocabulary as well as any senior executive. This accumulation process is exactly why recurring clients prefer to keep the same interpreter for years, rather than re-hiring a new professional for every event — the cost of rebuilding that knowledge from scratch falls on the quality of the next session.
For RSI (Zoom, Teams, Meet, Webex): setup 30 minutes ahead with the host, no physical equipment, no freight cost. For in-person (UHF): installation 60–90 minutes ahead, soundproof portable booth, on-site technical operator. For hybrid: both modalities run in parallel. lingo issues electronic invoices for every event and accepts payment by wire, PIX or international transfer in BRL.
Documented portfolio with verifiable mandates
lingo operates exclusively in the premium corporate market for more than 20 years. There are no academic, government, religious or entertainment events in the portfolio. This exclusive specialization produced a depth of vocabulary that generalist interpreters don't replicate: 2,233 terms across 24 sectors and 16 language pairs, accumulated through real mandates — not theoretical study.
Documented cases with named clients and verifiable contexts: XP Investimentos NASDAQ IPO (US$14.9B, 2019), CMA CGM × Santos Brasil (R$6.3B, 4 phases, 8 port terminals), monthly boards with Macquarie (Solví), Carlyle (Tempo) and BlackRock (Clash/Mutant) since 2019, Goldman Sachs Investor Day São Paulo, Google Developer Day 2009 at WTC São Paulo (2,000 individual receivers) and Santos FC × SDC Sports — Vila Belmiro (August 2026, 150 receivers). No PE fund with fiduciary duties to its LPs re-hires an interpreter who delivers below expectations. Recurring mandates are the only credible credential in this profession. Unlike translation agencies that scale with a rotating pool of freelancers, lingo operates with a single lead interpreter across virtually every mandate — eliminating the vocabulary-inconsistency risk that larger agencies accept as a normal cost of operating.
How lingo prepares vocabulary for Sergipe
Terminological accuracy in Sergipe is built before the event, not during. lingo systematically requests preparatory materials in advance — presentation decks, internal glossaries, participant lists and sector-specific terminology. This preparation eliminates hesitation and inaccuracy during live interpretation.
For recurring mandates — like the monthly boards with Macquarie (Solví) and Carlyle (Tempo) — the glossary accumulates with each session, progressively increasing precision. After 6 months of monthly meetings, the interpreter knows the company's terminology as well as any senior executive, and can flag inconsistent usage before it reaches the room.
In-person vs. remote for Sergipe
For Sergipe events, the modality depends on the event's type and size. Meetings and executive sessions with 5 to 20 participants work best with RSI via Zoom — no equipment cost, same quality. Conferences, investor days and trade shows with 50+ participants require the in-person system with individual UHF receivers and a portable booth. Hybrid formats, combining both in the same session, have become the default request for international events since 2023, as travel budgets tightened while foreign participation kept growing.
lingo operates both modalities at the same level of excellence, and has held active remote mandates with Carlyle, Macquarie and BlackRock since 2019 — proving that RSI does not compromise quality in high-stakes corporate contexts.
What sets lingo apart in Sergipe
Brazil's simultaneous interpretation market has few professionals with a documented portfolio in high-stakes corporate contexts. Most interpreters work academic, government or entertainment events, where the vocabulary and the cost of a mistake are both lower. lingo specializes exclusively in the premium corporate market — with cases documented at the level of JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs, Macquarie and BlackRock.
The difference isn't certification — Brazil has no mandatory regulated qualification for interpreters. It's the clients: when Macquarie, Carlyle and BlackRock return month after month, the quality is self-evident. Recurring mandates are the only credible signal of consistency in this profession.
