Digital Twin for Asset Integrity in São Paulo — NDT Data on a Live 3D Model
Atlantis NDT Digital Twin gives integrity teams in São Paulo, Brazil one 3D model of the asset with every UT, PAUT, TOFD, RT, MT, PT and ET reading mapped to the exact location it was taken. Corrosion rates trend automatically, API 581 RBI scores update as data lands, and API 579-1/ASME FFS-1 Level 1 and Level 2 assessments run against measured thickness instead of a spreadsheet snapshot.
The São Paulo asset base this is built for
São Paulo is the corporate headquarters of Petrobras' downstream and engineering operations, plus the Refinaria de Capuava (Replan Mauá), the Petrobras-operated Refinaria Henrique Lage (REVAP) at São José dos Campos, and the petrochemical complexes at Cubatão and Paulínia. Embraer's commercial-aircraft manufacturing at São José dos Campos drives NAS 410 aerospace NDT demand, and Vale's iron-ore beneficiation engineering offices coordinate integrity programmes across the Carajás and Itabira complexes. The combination of refining, petrochemical, and aerospace fixed-asset integrity work makes São Paulo a high-value digital twin market under ANP and IBAMA oversight.

What operators in São Paulo actually get out of it
São Paulo Petrobras downstream and Embraer aerospace operators running NDT digital twins typically reduce ANP and INMETRO evidence prep by 55% and defer BRL 35-90M per major asset of conservative-replacement capex.
Local use cases
- Petrobras REPLAN and REVAP refinery hot-reactor digital twins with HTHA screening.
- Embraer aerospace airframe component digital twins under NAS 410.

Case study
A São Paulo Petrobras contractor used the Atlantis NDT Digital Twin on REVAP atmospheric distillation columns to defer two-column replacement by 18 months.
How the twin is built
Capture the geometry (LiDAR, photogrammetry, drone survey, or import your existing BIM/CAD and isometrics), ingest inspection data over REST API or file drop from any instrument, overlay the governing damage mechanisms per API RP 571, then publish colour-coded remaining-life and RBI views to integrity, maintenance and planning. Records are retained audit-ready under ISO 9001, ISO 17020 and ISO 17025.
Integrations
SAP PM, Oracle eAM, IBM Maximo, ServiceNow, AVEVA PI, OSIsoft historians, Bentley iTwin, Cognite and Atlantis NDT ERP. Full REST API and bulk data export — you keep your data in a format you can leave with.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does Atlantis Digital Twin work in São Paulo?
We start with a 3D scan of your asset (drone, laser, photogrammetry), build a CAD-fidelity model, and then overlay every NDT inspection event (UT thickness readings, TOFD/PAUT scans, MT/PT indications, RT defect maps). Inspection data updates the model in real-time and colour-codes condition zones for engineering review. Operators in São Paulo use this to drive faster turnaround scoping, automated FFS evidence, and audit-grade regulatory reporting.
What does Digital Twin NDT cost in São Paulo?
Atlantis Digital Twin is an affordable, accessible, fully customizable enterprise SaaS platform sized for up to 500 assets, with ASNT Level III consulting and unlimited NDT data ingest included. Enterprise tiers are available for multi-site fleets, and on-prem deployment is offered at the same price point. Request a São Paulo-specific quote and we will model your asset count and data-volume requirements.
How long does deployment take in São Paulo?
A typical first-asset deployment runs 8-12 weeks: 2 weeks model build, 2 weeks data integration, 2-4 weeks workflow configuration, 2 weeks user training. Multi-asset rollouts are sequenced asset-by-asset after the first deployment is live, with each subsequent asset typically taking 4-6 weeks once the platform is configured for your São Paulo site.
Which NDT standards does the platform support in São Paulo?
API 510 (pressure vessels), API 570 (piping), API 653 (storage tanks), API 579 FFS, API 581 RBI, ASME Section V articles 2/4/6/7, ISO 9712 personnel qualification, ASNT SNT-TC-1A, and local code requirements depending on São Paulo's regulatory environment. Custom reporting templates can be configured for any additional national or operator-specific code.
Can Atlantis Digital Twin integrate with our existing CMMS in São Paulo?
Yes. We support REST API hooks for IBM Maximo, SAP PM, IFS, Oracle EAM, and most major CMMS platforms. Work-order creation, asset master sync, anomaly hand-off into corrective work, and FFS evidence packaging for management-of-change submittals can all be automated, allowing your São Paulo integrity team to focus on engineering judgement rather than data entry.
