Enhanced performance and agility in fueling operations

AutobaseWEB provides a robust SCADA interface that efficiently manages all hardware, optimizing fueling operations whit real-time data monitoring. Its user-friendly interface web interface simplifies the setup and configuration of essential process data while allowing full customization of your operations.

Orders can be submitted via WebService from the corporate system or directly through the web interface. From there, all access control and loading processes are fully automated, with fast order updates available to access via any commercial browser. The SCADA interface continuously displays the fueling status, ensuring complete operational visibility.

High-availability control

AutobaseWEB is composed by three dedicated servers: one to the database operation and application hosting, and two for running the BluePlant software, which powers the supervisory system — one as the main server and the other as a stand-by backup.

These servers are configurated in a redundant setup to ensure high system availability. They communicate seamlessly with presets, TEDs, and PLCs that manage and control various processes across the loading base.

Smooth operation with a user-friendly interface.

AutobaseWEB features a user-friendly visual interface, developed from user case studies, providing an intuitive and accessible experience for all skill levels. This user-centered design facilitates interaction with the system, making operations more efficient and reducing the need for intensive training.           

tomada-de-decisao

Quick and informed decision-making

The system features the ability to create real-time graphical reports, accessible through a multi-platform interface compatible with Linux, Windows, and macOS. This feature allows for a clear and immediate visualization of operational data, enabling precise and rapid analysis, essential for informed decision-making.                                                

acesso-remoto

Remote access for monitoring

In addition to all these features, the system also allows remote access to plant operating data, enabling monitoring and control of operations from any location. This capability offers flexibility and convenience, allowing managers and operators to maintain continuous supervision of operations, regardless of their location.
