I° SEMINARIO LATINOAMERICANO Y DEL CARIBE DE PETROLEO Y GAS

Quito, Ecuador 12 y 13 de julio de 2011

Brazilian Scenario

• Majors Brazilian Technologies Challenges:– Deepwater E&P– Crude Oils– Pre-salt– CO2 and H2S High Concentrations in oil

produced

Brazilian Scenario

• R&D Investment in oil and gas sector– Realizaded 2001 - 2010

US$ 3,7 billion

– Provided 2011 – 2020US$ 9 billion (US$ 75/oil barrel)

Brazilian Scenario

• Networking of research (about 50), involving several research groups at universities and technology institutes

• Investment in laboratory infrastructure• Construction of specialized laboratories and

equipments operations and tests simulations

Brazilian Scenario

High demand for critical technologies

Construction and operating high costs

Requeriments of equipments tests in operations conditions

Simulation Systems

Examples of Brazilian Options

• Simulation and Visualization Laboratory– Numerical Offshore Tank – TPN

• Department of Naval Architecture & Ocean Engineering EPUSP

– Laboratory on Scientific Computing and Visualization - LCCV• Technology Center of Universidade Federal de

Alagoas

Examples of Brazilian Options

• Full Scale shared testing facilities– Pipeline Technology Center – CTDUT

• Private not-for-profit • Association with the participation of

companies in the pipeline industry

TPN - Numerical Offshore Tanks

The TPN - Numerical Offshore Tanks joins some of the major brazilian universities and research institutes with PETROBRAS to seek new breakthroughs that allow deeper exploitations and Brazil’s oil and gas self-tecnology.

The TPN is part of Escola Politécnica - Universidade de São Paulo. It is located in São Paulo.

Infrastructure

Hydrodynamic Calibrator

4D Visualization Room

Projects

TPNView TPNView is a software that combines 3D visualization with tools for data analysis such as charts, histograms and statistics.

Who w

e a

re?

The LCCV - Laboratory on Scientific Computing and Visualization is the result of intense collaboration with PETROBRAS' research center - CENPES and with other important laboratories in many Brazilian universities.

The LCCV is part of CTEC - Technology Center of UFAL - Universidade Federal de Alagoas. It is located in Maceió, capital of the Alagoas State

CTDUT offers full scale testing facilities for research, tests and training and is open for use by the pipeline industry in a shared facility model.

Key Issues


Conceived as a privately owned, not for profit research institution.

CTDUT was founded by Petrobras, Transpetro and PUC-Rio University and is available for testing to any company or institution

45 Associates at this moment

Key Issues


Associates


Model

Availability Any company can access Clear and well known rules for use Avoid long and expensive re-commisioning time by

keeping it running

Confidentiality Go beyond the NDA: need to know basis. The fewer, the

safer Let the developers run the tests and evaluation and only

them have access to the results Limit your confidentiality concern to your own staff


Model

Flexibility Different companies means different needs

and different ways of working Physically prepared to address all needs

Interchangeable spools Include many different mapped flaws Realistic path with commonly found features Reasonable extension

Testing policy: be prepared for reconstructions from time to time


Model

Cost of operation Even shared costs must be kept low Extremely reduced fixed staff Research institutions and universities have very skilled

staff Focus on the operations and management level Networking and teaming to address technical issues The idea here is of complementing efforts and skills.

Not to be a competitor.

Testing dedicated pipeline

LOOP 14


Test Loops

Test dedicated pipelines under construction: Oil operated - 12” x 1.5 miles Natural Gas operated - 16” x 1.5 miles Both with scada system Closed loop for pig


Planned Infrastructure

National reference laboratory in flow meters calibration, in association with INMETRO (Government Official Metrology Department)

Cathodic Protection site for research and training (under construction)

Biofuel test dedicated pipeline (ethanol and biodiesel) under evaluation.

Valves Laboratory for compliance with new Brazilian Standard NBR 15827
