The sale of the Enseada Shipyard, formerly owned by Odebrecht, and port terminal in 2025 promises to generate billions. See the implications of this major sale!
O Enseada Shipyard, located in Maragogipe and belonging to the Novonor group (andx-Odebrecht), will be sold. The information was confirmed by the company's president, Ricardo Ricardi. According to him, all assets will be put up for sale in 2025, including the port terminal, which is already in operation.
O edict should be published soon, with bidding expected for the first half of next year.
The company has been undergoing judicial recovery since 2019 and needs to settle around R$3 billion in debts
The company, which has been undergoing judicial recovery since 2019, is seeking to settle around R$3 billion in debt. The crisis began in 2014, when the incentive policy for the naval industry ended. To attract buyers, the sale will be divided into three parts: Private Use Terminal (TUP), the shipyard, which recently resumed operations, and an area dedicated to the renewable energy industry.
- No more asphalt! Federal highway abandons traditional paving and adopts concrete, which lasts twice as long as the old asphalt
- Duplication of the 'death' highway (BR) will cost R$1,75 BILLION, reduce accidents, damage the economy and generate more than 600 jobs
- Deadly collapse at Transpetro terminal: Discover the critical error that took the lives of two workers and left one injured in Angra dos Reis
- End the year with guaranteed employment: Offshore and onshore job vacancies at Perbras with attractive salaries and competitive benefits
Furthermore, the Private Use Terminal (TUP), which already handles mineral and vegetable bulk, is considered the most attractive and viable asset for sale. If the assets do not find buyers who satisfy the demands of the main creditors โ Caixa Econรดmica Federal and Banco do Brasil โ, the company will continue operating the business, with the expectation of selling the assets at a new opportunity.
The shipyard will return to operation with the construction of 80 barges and is already competing in bids that promise to generate 3 jobs
Another important point is that the shipyard will return to operation with the construction of 80 barges, each with the capacity to transport 2,9 tons. These barges will be destined for LHG Mining, a company of the J&F group, in a contract valued at R$500 million. For this project, Enseada formed a consortium with Tenenge, which holds 25% of the business, while the shipyard participates with 75%.
This contract signals the resumption of operations of Enseada Shipyard and may open doors for new projects. The expectation is that this move will dispel doubts about the shipyard's ability to mobilize for larger projects. According to Ricardi, the company is already competing in bids that could involve up to 3 workers.
Enseada is participating in competitions for owners of Petrobras support vessels
Furthermore, the Enseada is also participating in tenders for owners of Petrobras support vessels. However, the president highlighted that the current volume of operations in the port terminal is still below its true potential. With the reactivation and new contracts in sight, the company hopes to improve these numbers and attract new business.
These actions are seen as crucial to the company's recovery and to ensure that it continues to operate if the sale process does not progress as planned. The outlook is positive, but the sale depends on market interest and creditors' acceptance.
