Gas Pipelines

- Construction and assembly of the Cacimbas (ES) – Catu (BA) section - an integral part of GASENE, with a length of 946 km and a maximum capacity of 20 million m³ / day. The line will interconnect the Southeast and Northeast Networks, introducing a greater degree of flexibility in the supply of gas to the Northeast of Brazil.
- Construction and assembly of the Gasduc III gas pipeline, 182 km long, for the off-take of the entire production of the Campos and Espírito Santo basins, to be enhanced following the implementation of PLANGÁS – Anticipated Gas Production Plan for the Southeast Network.
