Urucu-Manaus Gas Pipeline

A project at the heart of the Amazon rainforest

Development and implementation of automation, instrumentation, electrical, telecommunications and logistics systems for Petrobras' Urucu-Manaus Gas Pipeline.

With a length of 662 km and the capacity to transport up to 10 million cubic meters of natural gas per day, the pipeline represents a significant advancement for Brazil’s energy matrix and a major environmental benefit for the country, promoting operational efficiency, safe gas transport, and reduced environmental impact.

The use of natural gas as an energy source in place of diesel contributes to reducing carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions into the atmosphere, reinforcing the project’s role as a positive environmental milestone for the country. Altus’s involvement in this undertaking reaffirms our expertise in large-scale energy infrastructure projects, delivering highly reliable domestic technology for major challenges.

Clean energy and operational safety

The solution delivered by our specialists involved the design and development of the complete SCADA system, as well as its integration with the 24 distributed control stations along the 662 km Urucu–Manaus pipeline.

Each of these stations was equipped with high-performance, high-availability programmable controllers developed and manufactured by Altus itself, ensuring robustness, reliability, and safety for field operations.

Altus’ team of experts developed and delivered the SCADA system, integrating it with 24 control stations along the pipeline. Each station is equipped with high-performance, high-availability programmable controllers from Altus. To further enhance control and communication, all PLCs are interconnected via fiber optics, communicating with Transpetro’s Central Operations Control via satellite.

This automation and telecommunications infrastructure delivered by Altus reinforces our ability to provide complete, integrated solutions for large-scale energy infrastructure projects, using domestic technology and maintaining a high standard of quality.

Remote Supervision

Solutions supporting real-time data collection and the generation of remote status diagnostic reports, enabling comprehensive remote monitoring of operations.

Enhanced Productivity

Significant increase in the effectiveness of the field maintenance team, providing rapid access to diagnostics, alerts, and real-time operational information.

Energy Efficiency

Significant reduction in logistical costs by enabling precise remote diagnostics to guide teams more efficiently, avoiding unnecessary travel and accelerating problem resolution.

High Availability

Reduction in downtime through rapid and precise detection of system fault origins, ensuring operational continuity, minimizing production impacts, and guaranteeing maximum process performance and reliability.

Services and equipment provided with the

The solution delivered by Altus includes licenses and development services for the Supervisory and Control System, as well as the specification and configuration of all required equipment and software.

It encompasses the development of controller logic, integration with field instrumentation, commissioning activities followed by assisted operation, and comprehensive training in system operation and maintenance.

Remote Monitoring for Operational Control

The Supervision and Control System runs on a dedicated server with Elipse E3 Supervision Software in stand-alone mode. Known as the EGDA (Asset Management Station), the server also hosts a Microsoft SQL database.This system allows for comprehensive diagnostics of each station, covering all Altus hardware.

It also monitors key alarms and faults, ensuring the smooth operation of programmable controllers and field communication systems.

Asset Management for Field Instrument Monitoring

The asset management system operates on the same machine as the supervision system, and once the PROFIBUS networks are configured and the control architecture is implemented at each station, it becomes capable of monitoring the HART instrumentation installed along the pipeline.

With this configuration, the asset management station provides online testing, deviation alerts related to factors such as supply pressure and instrument electronics health, valve position graphs, instrument status updates, calibration checks and calibrated ranges, performance metrics, and valve signature tracking with real-time reading values.
