- Home
- Case
Context
- Generate Locational Alternatives of new routes for international pipeline
- Reduce environmental risks in the management of legal enforcement conditions
- Extremely complex environment considering the on / offshore transition
Own Methodology
- Intelligent approach, with multilayers analysis, using external and internal databases
- Use of satellite images, VANTs and other cutting-edge technologies
- Development of multi-data analysis algorithms for trace recommendations
Main modeled dimensions:
- Routes already thought
- Topography
- Use of the soil
- Susceptibility to erosion
- Floodable areas
- Protected areas
- Geology
- Pedology
- Urban areas
- Industrial districts (to identify customers on the way)
- Highways
- Among others
Results
- Capex reduction of approximately 5% in relation to the base project
- Route definition taking into account socio-environmental, economic and regulatory licensing risks
- Performed ~ 10% of the time of a traditional layout study
