(251019) -- AMAZONAS, Oct. 19, 2025 (Xinhua) -- This photo taken on Oct. 16, 2025 shows the production facilities of the Urucu Oil and Gas Production Field in the state of Amazonas, Brazil.

The Urucu Oil and Gas Production Field, located in the heart of Brazil's Amazonas state, is one of the country's most important onshore oil and gas production bases.

Surrounded by pristine rainforest, it has operated steadily since its start-up in 1988, supplying oil and natural gas that support energy needs across northern Brazil.

According to its operator Petrobras, the field has preserved about 98 percent of its area as native forest, carries out rainwater recycling, waste recovery, and reforestation programs and plants more than 1.5 million native trees. (Xinhua/Wang Tiancong)
