4.4. Funders and executors of projects
financed under the RD&I Clause
Research and development proj-
ects executed with resources
from the Clause can be execut-
ed by the oil company, research
institutions, and Brazilian com-
panies. In the case of the last
two, the studies developed aim
at meeting the specific demands
of oil extraction and production
companies. An RD&I project can

Petrobras stands out in terms of
the number of projects financed
(1,611), as expected, the company
also generates a greater volume of
funds from RD&I obligations. Shell

RD&I projects. In Espírito Santo,
the company that financed all proj-
ects was Petrobras.
Regarding the companies execut-
ing these projects, Petrobras also
stands out, having participated in
525 projects, followed by Shell (103
projects) and Repsol Sinopec (45
projects). Until 2020, no company
in Espírito Santo had developed
research, development and innova-
tion projects with these resources.
However, the state already showed
potential to do so, standing out in
public notices in the oil and gas
sector, such as in the Repsol-Sino-
pec Digitization Challenge 35, in Lay-
er 2019 of FindesLab with the Shell
Brasil Challenge 36, in The Connec-

Petrobras and Sebrae 37, and in the
