Bahia's first well-to-wire system in expansion for other projects

According to the current schedule, Imetame will start operating the 28MW Prosperidade I thermoelectric plant this September. It will be the first well-to-wire system in Bahia, that is, an electric power generation project integrated with gas production, similar to what Eneva developed in Maranhão. Fluxo had a strategic participation in the supply to Eneva and contributed in an essential way in the natural gas systems for Imetame, in this great challenge.

Due to the Imetame and Alvopetro gas production fields being geologically interconnected, it was defined that Alvopetro will have 49.1% of reserves and Imetame 50.9% (36.1% of its own plus 14.8% acquired from Orteng). considering reservations in place, are 1.832 billion m³ for Imetame and 1.767 billion m³ for Alvopetro, respectively.

In this scenario, Fluxo stood out, once again, with the supply of the Pressure Regulation System - ERP and the Flow Measurement Station - EMED to Imetame and, due to its efforts, two systems were supplied in the last month of June, in a record 75 days. The final customer in this case is Bahiagás, the company responsible for the entire distribution of natural gas in the State of Bahia, which followed the entire design and inspection phase of its systems, regulation and measurement.

Fluxo designed and built the complete fiscal flow measurement and natural gas regulation systems for Bahiagás, in accordance with the recommendations and technical guidelines of AGA 3, and complied with all the regulations required by the ANP/INMETRO joint resolution nº 1, of June 10, 2013, for small accumulation fields.
