Ipiranga AutobasiWeb

Chemical Product Loading Control System

The Altus Engineering team was responsible for the development and implementation of Ipiranga's new fuel loading system. To achieve this, the company utilized its programmable controller technology and the AutobaseWeb system, customizable as AutobasiWeb Ipiranga.

Fuel Loading Control System

O AutobasiWeb Ipiranga é um sistema desenvolvido pelos especialistas da Altus com base nos produtos comercializados pela empresa.

Composed of a SCADA interface that manages all the hardware, controlling loads and providing real-time data, and a web interface for registering and configuring all the data necessary for the process and customizing the database.

How the AutobaseWeb System Works

How the AutobaseWeb System Works

The AutobaseWeb system operates on three servers: the first is dedicated to the Oracle Database and the TomCat web application server, while the second and third are reserved for the BluePlant software, networked with the unit’s presets, TEDs, and PLCs.

Orders can be placed through Ipiranga’s corporate system via WebService or directly through the web interface, allowing access and order input from any of the company’s plants. From that point, all base access and loading operations are automated, with full visibility of order status through any commercial web browser, and real-time monitoring of the loading process via the SCADA interface.
