After Months Without News About the Port Terminal, EBTE Engenharia Submitted to Environmental Agencies and the Public Hearing Will Be Scheduled in 15 Days

The construction project for the Port Terminal in Macaé (Tepor) takes another important and definitive step this October for the joy of its residents and the city’s economy. EBTE has met the environmental requirements for the installation of the enterprise and has submitted to INEA, and soon, in about 15 days, we will have a date for the public hearing, according to the institution.

In addition to the Port Terminal, the project also includes an area for storing oil or its derivatives and a Natural Gas Processing Unit. It is worth mentioning that the Macaense community will be able to participate in this Hearing when the date and location of the event are announced; Click Petróleo e Gás will notify our followers and readers.

In May of this year, the mayor of Macaé, Dr. Aluízio, expropriated an area of 6,448,378.97 square meters that will be used for the construction of the Transportation Highway that will connect the Port Terminal area of Macaé (Tepor), in São José do Barreto, to RJ-168, linking to the central area of the municipality and BR-101.

Start of Construction

José Eduardo Carramenha, consultant for Tempor, says that these new parameters allow for setting a date for the start of the enterprise: “The new schedule is as follows: in 15 days, INEA should schedule the Public Hearing. After this analysis, the preliminary license can be issued in 90 days. And, once the requirements are fulfilled after this evaluation, the installation license, which allows the start of construction, can be issued within another three-month period,” explains Carramenha.

The specifications for the Port Terminal project in Macaé include two terminals with distinct functions. The first will be designated for oil handling and will have two drafts with at least 27 meters deep. It will accommodate large vessels, such as a ULCC (See a model of this ship here), which will be able to pump about 2 million barrels of oil daily. Terminal number 2 will handle liquids and perform offshore support activities. There will be a 4 km land bridge extending into the sea with a depth of 16 meters for ship-to-ship operations.

Macaé is racing against time to make up for lost time and recoup investments that could have been made a long time ago during prosperous times, but now faces some challenges due to the severe economic recession of the past 4 years, not to mention that Porto do Açú is undertaking projects to build a heliport, which will transfer some operations from the city to São João da Barra.
