Resumo: | ||||||||
This study was motivated by the uncertainties related to the natural gas supply in Brazil in the coming years due to possible delays in the Pre-Salt projects. To mitigate the risk of natural gas production falling short of planned for the coming years, Petrobras has been expanding the alternatives for the natural gas supply by building regasification of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) terminals. Within this scenario is analyzed the feasibility of building a gas chemical complex to produce nitrogenous fertilizer and other chemicals, considering that the plant has the option to complement the plentiful supply of the complex by importing
LNG in periods that the natural gas supply is insufficient to meet the total consumption of this plant. The triangular distribution and stochastic mean reversion is used to model uncertainties regarding supply and price variables, respectively, and Monte Carlo simulation for pricing the option to switch inputs. The results indicate that the choice of LNG as a supply of full complementation of he complex increases the value of the project, proving that this is a viable and economically attractive alternative.
