Azul
has had a longstanding relationship with MacROAD. We began
using the software back in 1993 for the design of roads,
well pads, pipelines and platforms for various clients,
such as: Triton, Oxy, Oryx, Maxus, Santa Fe, EDC, ARCO,
Fluor Daniels, and others. We have found it to be the
strongest program available for processing topographical
data.

AZUL
made use of MacROAD to quantify and compensate for the
cut and fill of the access roads and platforms for the
Yuralpa Oil Field Development Project. AZUL has utilized
MacROAD in the development & construction of more
than 20 other roads and more than 60 other Petroleum Well
locations.
95% of all of AZUL’s earth movement projects have
been developed using MacROAD. The software has enabled
AZUL to maintain our competitive edge by increasing productivity
significantly. Since implementing MacROAD, AZUL has been
able to cut down planning time by over 80% from traditional
earth movement and road design planning methods.

Fernando
Garrido, an Engineer for AZUL, has this to say about MacROAD:
"We like MacRoad because it is very simple to use.
We developed the Yuralpa Exploration Platform Road &
Site plan with MacROAD v. 6.04.
We
can get an engineer up to speed with most of the program’s
functions in a couple of days. Other programs typically
require an 8 to 10 day training period.
The
ease with which MacROAD handles 3-D is an added plus.
MacROAD helped AZUL and our clients’ engineers
visualize the Yuralpa site without having to first undertake
extensive clearing of the jungle."

Here
at AZUL we actively promote transparent relationships
with our clients. We’ve built long term client relationships
based on trust and performance. With hard work and effort
we have grown to become the national leaders in the provision
of services for the oil, energy, and related sectors.
Our organization is characterized by functional flexibility,
technological leadership and innovative creativity to
ensure its rational growth. Although at present we operate
principally in Ecuador, AZUL is currently expanding its
operations to other countries throughout Latin America.
