About us - Compass

Learn more about Compass

We are Compass, a company created to expand and diversify the gas market in Brazil, promoting greater security and competitiveness across the energy grid.

We do this anchored on our values: Transparent, Connected and Audacity.

Audacity

Connection

Transparency

Our story began in 2012, with the acquisition of Comgás by Cosan. Since then, we have created a winning business model that enabled us to increase the number of clients and expand the gas pipeline network.

Based on all the knowledge and experience in managing Comgás, we created Compass in March 2020 to offer options for an increasingly free gas and energy market in Brazil. In five years of history, we have already invested nearly R$12 billion in Brazil’s natural gas market.

Natural gas is safe, competitive and less ambiental impact, which makes it strategically important for Brazil’s energy transition, fostering free competition and the country’s development. In this scenario of numerous opportunities, Compass, with its unique strategic portfolio of assets, offers solutions for the supply of natural gas with excellence and security.

Our operations are currently grouped into two segments: Distribution and Marketing & Services.

Distribution

Marketing & Services

We operate through two vehicles. In addition to Comgás, Brazil’s largest natural gas distributor located in São Paulo, we hold equity interest in six other gas distributors managed by Commit, Compass’ subsidiary in which Mitsui is a partner.

Commit’s assets are located in the Center-South region, where we have Sulgás, Necta and Compagas. In the other distributors, Commit has been working on synergy and alignment with its local partners, exchanging experiences and implementing the best management practices

Know More

Segment that offers natural gas supply alternatives, ensuring safety and flexibility, promoting decarbonization among all its clients, whether they are connected to the distribution grid or are off-grid, transporting other energy products via highways (LNG B2B).

The third quarter of 2023 marked the launch of operations in this segment, with its assets organized under the “Edge” brand. Its business model consists of strategic assets such as the São Paulo Regasification Terminal (TRSP), located in Santos, and biomethane assets and contracts (e.g.: recently announced purification plant in partnership with Orizon) and LNG B2B, all managed by Edge in an integrated manner to maximize efficiency and synergies.
