CONCLUSIONS

CONCLUSIONS
THE PIPELINE SECTOR IN BRAZIL PRESENTS LARGE BUSINESS
OPPORTUNITIES IN AREAS SUCH AS:
Construction and assembly;
Materials (pipes, valves, turbines, pumps, etc);
Onshore and offshore pipeline equipment;
Special Services (aerial surveys, remote sensing, specialized engineering,
consulting, inspection,
repairs, certification, training, automation,
environmental protection,
corrosion control, etc).

CONCLUSIONS
Partnership Opportunities
Technological Cooperation
Plant Installation in Brazil
Local Components replacing Imports
Partnerships

CONCLUSIONS
The Brazilian pipeline sector maturity,
allied to the significant demand
confirmed for the near future offers
a unique business opportunity
for the international pipeline industry.
