With Technological Evolution, Solutions and Strategies This Growth of Siemens Is a Leap in the Evolution of the Sector
After the renewal of Repetro, the multinational Siemens saw an opportunity to increase the supply of solutions produced at its factory in Santa Barbara d’Oeste in São Paulo. According to the company’s Oil and Gas director in Brazil, Claudio Makarovsky, the strategy is to extend the scope of products manufactured by the company. In addition to offering the compression skid, they also offer the module. By partnering with shipyards for module manufacturing, the executive further explained that the company intends to provide the option to rent equipment and 30 years of maintenance.
Makarovsky claims that in the coming months and at the beginning of next year, the company’s participation in tenders for five platforms will be defined. There are new developments for 2019, including at least two more platforms from the Libra field, the Carcará project, and new projects from other operators.

In addition to technologies that are maturing in the oil and gas market, such as the Subsea Power Grid, the company is presenting local content solutions competitively, due to the new Repetro policies. They are reaching international pricing, even challenging some suppliers to return to the market.
The Subsea Power Grid is a JIP that brings controlled power to the seabed. In the case of satellite wells, for example, instead of installing a platform directly above the well, this technology allows dropping a single umbilical to distribute all the power.
New developments are in the area of digitization and some partnerships from a Siemens branch called Next 47, which is a startup accelerator. From this group, they brought a cyberattack protection system. “The great focus has been on digitization, we brought a partner who placed the Internet of Things inside a valve, that is, it can detect leaks, noises, and transmit all of this to the cloud,” informed the director about this new advancement of Siemens’ program called MindSphere.
Another product presented by the company is Mind Twin, which integrates several silos that are natural to the oil industry, where data owners do not share this information. This product allows full monitoring of a database, from maintenance, operation, asset management, and project phase.
With the increase of this scope and the innovations that Siemens is presenting, in addition to the interest of companies like Petrobras, which has just created a general management of digital transformation, they are encouraged and raising their expectations for the oil and gas market to be as prosperous as possible.
