In Order to Serve Offshore Platforms in the Campos Basin and Espírito Santo, the Construction of the Helipad at Porto do Açu Will Begin in 2019 and Is Expected to Be Operational by 2020

In order to expand its service portfolio, Porto do Açu Operações and Grupo Aeropart – Airport Participations signed a contract earlier this week for the construction of a Helipad to serve offshore platforms in the Campos Basin and Espírito Santo, activities that are currently mostly in the hands of Macaé Airport, with some directed to Farol de São Tomé in Campos dos Goytacazes.

The Açu Port Complex is one of the largest integrated structures in Rio de Janeiro, and Prumo Logística, the port administrator, has been making excellent use of the infrastructure to secure new business and ventures. In addition to the first thermoelectric power plant already under construction, the second has been approved, gasification systems as well, a Export Processing Zone (ZPE), and now the Helipad, not to mention its port structure with incredible capacities to accommodate large vessels and platforms.

Some Specifications About the Helipad

The expectation is that construction of the Açu Helipad will start in 2019, after obtaining the necessary authorizations, under the responsibility of Grupo Aeropart. Operations are scheduled for 2020. It is expected that 150 jobs will be created during the construction phase of the Helipad and about 240 during operations. The Helipad will have 20 positions for aircraft parking and a total area of 210,000 m².

In the cold desert of Ladakh, where it hardly rains, engineer Sonam Wangchuk created the ice stupa, a tower that freezes winter water and stores it for irrigating crops in the spring, a simple engineering feat that mimics nature.

Libya built over 4,000 kilometers of underground pipelines to bring water from the Sahara to coastal cities in a project that the government itself called the Eighth Wonder of the World.

Chinese woman planted trees for decades while sand buried part of her house, received $5,000 from an American in 1999, and helped transform the desert into a forest of 8 million trees in China.

Desert sand, previously discarded for being too smooth for concrete, becomes an ecological brick in the United Arab Emirates, dispensing with Portland cement, curing at room temperature, and attempting to transform dunes useless for construction into raw material for a new arid engineering.

Almost 6,000 residents live concentrated along a single street nearly 9 km long in the interior of Poland. Houses form a continuous row, and behind them, narrow agricultural strips emerge, creating one of the most unusual rural patterns in Europe.

Described by astronauts as one of the most unlikely natural phenomena on Earth, the Okavango Delta spreads over up to 15,000 square kilometers in the middle of the desert and transforms Botswana into a living labyrinth of channels, islands, and flooded areas.

Two helicopters, 41 people, and over 38 tons of bait were mobilized on a remote Pacific atoll to eliminate rats; five years later, native trees grew by 5,000%, seabirds gained habitat, and the rainforest began to regenerate.

Florida begins sending robotic rabbits to the Everglades swamps, where they mimic prey, use cameras, AI, and sensors to attract and locate invasive pythons hidden in the mud and vegetation.

Engineers in Brazil deploy a robot dog to enter pipelines of a R$ 134.7 million project, facing mud, sand, humidity, and toxic gases, and send data in real-time without exposing workers.

An abandoned weapons factory that still contains ammunition and military vehicles has been discovered.

Businessman puts modern 1,100 square meter fortress in Russia up for sale for $550,000, featuring high walls, archer towers, a 1.2-hectare plot, and an isolated location on the banks of the Don River.
