Success stories

Bently Nevada advances its presence on Pulp & Paper industry in Latin America

1 min read


Bently Nevada closed a brownfield contract with Arauco to monitor and protect three Pulp & Paper plants located in Chile. Including portables, software and services solutions, this win represents a next step on Bently Nevada’s journey to penetrate industrial markets and is aligned with Baker Hughes’ strategy to position ourselves for new frontiers. 

Bently Nevada now owns a significant installed base with one of Latin America’s major customers in the industry with almost 3,000 sensors integrated to System 1 to provide plant-wide and integrated monitoring solutions for over 1,100 machines across four plants. 

 
The challenges

Bently Nevada was invited by Arauco to join a bid process to provide asset management for Licancel, Valdivia and Constitucion plants. Considering that our major competitors were also involved, the team had to prepare a strong proposal focused on our leading technology and cost competitiveness. 

After a four-month negotiation period and several technical discussions in which the local team showed a great example of flexibility and commercial intensity, Bently Nevada was considered the preferred supplier for this project. 

 
The solution

Selected mainly for our technology strengths, specially System 1 and VbOnline cutting-edge capabilities, the deal also includes portables (Scout 220 and 240), Decision Support and remote monitoring, which will be conducted from the new Remote Monitoring Center in Campinas, Brazil.
