 A Safe Approach in Implementing a GIS Solution Track: Pipeline Transmission Author(s): Sidney Santos, Renato Cabral The gas pipeline design process at Petrobras Gas Business Unit lacked reliable and quickly disposable information so necessary for Projects implementation. Many gas pipelines are older than 20 years and some do not have a complete set of information even in paper format. To face ongoing demands from regulatory and environmental agencies we had started a GIS implementation with a different approach that has been given good results. Petrobras has some GIS solutions already in place and spread all over the company but most of them lack some fundamental features and approaches that are fundamental for their systematic use as an invaluable tool. To address internal and external demands for accurate and reliable information we decided to implement a GIS system with a low profile approach comprising some important steps. This paper will underline the overall benefits received from the adoption of the above described approach. Sidney Santos Petrobras Gas Business Unit Av.
