She explains that there is great interest in the free gas market, both in the thermal and non-thermal segments. “Clients connected to gas pipelines want other suppliers, and those who are isolated want an alternative that provides more competitiveness to their processes,” she summarizes.
“There is an opportunity to replace liquid fuels like diesel and fuel oil with natural gas, with significant economic, social, and environmental impact.”
New Strategies For The Internalization Of Natural Gas In Brazil
Brazil is already recognized as a major natural gas producer, with volumes of 130 million cubic meters per day (mm m³/d). Part of this production is reinjected into wells to increase oil production, part is consumed in the production itself, and part is also flared on platforms and finally invested in clean energy.
The net volume available for marketing is around 83 mm m³/d (EPE, PDE 2029). There are also some losses in gas processing, but in addition to national production there is also importation via pipelines or by ships, with gas being transported in a liquid state (Liquefied Natural Gas, or LNG), conditioned at -160 degrees Celsius.
The national gas pipeline network interconnects capitals and coastal cities from Ceará to Rio Grande do Sul in a North-South direction (with a branch going from Rio de Janeiro to Minas Gerais) and from the State of Mato Grosso do Sul to São Paulo in the West-East direction. The network also includes small sections in Mato Grosso and Amazonas.
