Case Study: BP Bunge cuts burned area by 90% with umgrauemeio's PANTERA

BP Bunge cuts burned area by 90% with umgrauemeio

The customer, BP Bunge Bioenergy, faced significant challenges in managing fires across its vast sugarcane operations. With 11 units spread across the country, their satellite-based detection system was slow, providing alerts hours after a fire had started, which made coordinating a timely response from their brigades complex and unpredictable. They partnered with the vendor umgrauemeio and its PANTERA solution to address this issue.

umgrauemeio's PANTERA system provided smoke detection in seconds, pinpointing exact fire locations through data triangulation. This allowed BP Bunge Bioenergy to strategically reposition its fleet for a guaranteed 15-minute response time. As a result, the burned area was reduced by 90%, dropping from 7,030 hectares in 2021 to just 713 hectares in 2022.
