Despite Brazil’s shipbuilding industry struggling with low demand for large-scale projects such as FPSOs and drilling units, there are high expectations for maximizing operations by support vessels in the coming years. Last week, we had a small glimpse of some successful projects in this segment in the national environment. Via Renato Oliveira

1 – Belov Shipyard, Bahia

The first was the delivery of 2 DSVs (Diving Support Vessels) BELOV AMARALINA and BELOV HUMAITÁ by the Belov shipyard in Bahia, in addition to the construction of the 2,000-ton dry dock BELOV ITAPOAN for the load-out of the DSVs. Congratulations to Marcos Campos and Alessandro Carnivali Garcia and the entire Belov shipyard !!!!

2 – Navship Shipyard, Santa Catarina

2) Navship Shipyard completed the conversion of two RSV (Remote Submersible Vehicle Support) vessels. Final tests and launching of the ROV in deep waters remain. Soon, they are expected to present themselves to Petrobras in Rio de Janeiro to start the new service contracts. Congratulations to the Navship Shipyard in Navegantes (SC)!

3 – P 70, Petrobras

3) Lastly, although manufactured in China, the P-70 began production in the Atapu field and had its first oil on 06/25, boosting a whole demand for support boats.

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

Spain installs two giant pipelines 2.2 km off the coast to draw water from the Mediterranean and supply a megafacility capable of producing 200 million liters of drinking water per day.

While millions receive Bolsa Família, thousands of Chinese arrive to work in Brazil, exposing the uncomfortable debate about qualification, productivity, employment, and dependence on public money.

Philippines begin construction of the country’s largest desalination plant in a city without enough fresh water to grow, and the 66,500 m³ per day plant will transform the sea into drinking water for 50,000 homes in 24 months with reverse osmosis technology from SUEZ and JEMCO.

The first ammonia-powered cargo ship has already been realized with a capacity of 46,000 m³, dual-fuel engine, and a promise to cut carbon in heavy maritime transport.

China modernizes the oldest metro line in Mexico City, taking on the renovation of 18.83 km, 20 stations, new trains, signaling, and maintenance for 19 years in one of the most crowded systems in Latin America.
