Internet Connection Requirements

The recommended speed for using the Petronect Portal is at least 20Mbps, otherwise, the system's time response may not be satisfactory. We would like to remember that the internet connection also depends on the number of users simultaneously connected in your company.

Your connection should offer an internet fixed IP. Moreover, if your company uses a proxy connection with Petronect Portal, a specific configuration is necessary. Please contact your company’s technical area to guarantee the correct configuration.

The portal provides a tool to assist you in measuring your connection speed. In case of doubt, contact support.

Files Upload

We recommend that, while sending proposals, vendors should use compacted documents or “lighter” formats.

Please see below tips to facilitate the process of uploading documents:

  • To upload pictures, use “.JPG” format, a lighter format that will upload your document faster;
  • To upload general documents, use “.PDF” (Acrobat Reader) in lower resolution, that will make it lighter;
  • As an archive compactor, we recommend “.zip”;
  • After the file upload, please verify the integrity of the document in the Portal. Petronect is not responsible for corrupted archives uploaded in the Portal;
  • After estimated upload time may vary depending on the document size and the internet quality. Petronect recommends to upload documents up to 5 mb, which approximately corresponds to:
Connection Upload nominal rate Estimated time to upload
1Mbps 300Kbps 2min. 19s
2Mbps 500Kbps 1min. 23s
5Mbps 1Mbps 42s
10Mbps 2Mbps 22s

In order to make your quotation process faster, Petronect provides a tool to submit prices and its conditions to multiple items (Only for materials). We recommend the use of this functionality for RFQs with more than 30 items.
