The Amazon region has been demonstrating a great oil and gas potential in Brazil and in the neighboring countries, specially the field of Camisea in Peru. However, the development of feasible and economically justifiable transport systems, that can allow the flow of those resources to their potential markets, continues to be the great challenge. In this work, we present some options that can be transformed into competitive and commercial projects. We describe different gas pipeline options, discussing their technical, economic and commercial aspects.
