Phenix Energy Group

Location :

Phenix Energy Group is an environmentally conscious company, which will be constructing and managing a crude oil pipeline across Central America.

The system consists of a deep water facility; sub-oceanic pipeline set; tank complex on the Atlantic coast; terrestrial pipeline from the Atlantic to the Pacific coasts; tank complex on the Pacific Coast and sub-oceanic pipeline to the deep water facility on the Pacific side. The pipeline system is capable of carrying 4.2 million barrels of product per day from tankers on the Atlantic Side to the Super-tankers on the Pacific side.

The sub-oceanic pipelines are laid under the Atlantic Ocean carrying the product to the Atlantic tank farms; the terrestrial pipelines carry the product beneath the coastal plains, over mountains, under lakes and rivers and down to the coastal plains and the Pacific Ocean. At several points along its path, it is served by pumping stations. These stations are monitored in real time by sensors, video, audio and human observers. The data collected by the systems is transported via fiber optic cable to the two data centers, one in Florida and one in Central America. Abnormal readings are immediately identified and require a response from headquarters in Florida or in the data center in the host country. An appropriate response is determined and defined in advance by Phenix and the required action is initiated.

The corporate center in Florida receives data in real time based on sorting algorithms designed by staff to alert the company to any extraordinary event. The system allows us to monitor all vital functions and maintenance intervals for power equipment ranging from backhoes to helicopters, etc. This security significantly reduces, if not eliminates, theft, vandalism and operation by unqualified and uncertified operators. All activities on any equipment are tied to particular operators and this allows us to track competence, timeliness, skill and performance as well as service intervals.
