The PR (Delivery Point) in Guapimirim will receive the processed gas from the UPGN at Comperj, which is under construction by Petrobras and Kerui Metodo, aiming to treat production from the pre-salt, evacuated through Rota 3 (including gas from the transfer of onerous rights).
Petrobras still holds a 10% stake in NTS, which is controlled by an investment fund that also includes Brookfield (82.35%) and Itaúsa (7.65%). The Brazilian state-owned company has already indicated that it plans to gradually exit the fuel transportation and distribution market.
The Company Responsible for the Construction
The company is preparing for the future expansion of the network and attracting new clients beyond Petrobras; today, NTS is responsible for a network of over 2,000 km of pipelines connecting the states of Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais, and São Paulo (accounting for 50% of gas consumption in Brazil) to the Brazil-Bolivia pipeline, LNG terminals, and gas processing plants.
NTS’s pipelines connect Brazil’s most industrialized region and distribute 158.2 million m³ of gas per day, with its control sold by Petrobras for over 5 billion dollars to Brookfield in April 2017.
