The 10th Edition of Brasil Offshore, Held From June 25 to 28 in the City of Macaé, Generated R$196 Million in Business During the First Two Days of the Event.
The commemorative edition of 20 years of Brasil Offshore was a success. A reserved space at the fair created by Firjan, ONIP, and SEBRAE was one of the most important locations of the event; we could say it was the “heart” of the fair. The space for business meetings hosted 442 meetings and contract signings (counting only the first two days) amounting to R$196 million, which is R$54 million more than the entire 2017 fair.
Karine Fragoso, manager of Oil, Gas, and Naval at Firjan and general director of ONIP, stated: “This demonstrates the recovery of the oil and gas market in Brazil and in Macaé.”

Another number that increased considerably was the number of participants, which was 30% higher than the previous edition.
The 22 companies considered anchors (potential buyers) of the event selected more than 300 potential suppliers to participate in the business round, which included entrepreneurs from Rio de Janeiro, Espírito Santo, and Sergipe, among others.
At the business round location, suppliers and oil and gas market players sat face to face, discussing projects and supply possibilities in the local market. Obviously, the business round was a highly praised initiative by suppliers who had direct contact with customers.
For large companies, it was an excellent opportunity to understand the capacity of the local market and to establish business connections. According to Maurício Gomes, representative of Subsea7, “This is the second time we are participating, and last time, about 30% of the companies we spoke with in the Round ended up being hired.”
Evandro Cunha, coordinator of the Firjan Municipal Commission in Macaé, also praised the business round, as it allowed for knowledge of the supply chain in the region. The coordinator stated: “The anchor company needs this supply chain, and our region has many qualified companies to meet demands in this new moment of the oil and gas industry.”
However, one must expect that the effects of the success of these negotiation rounds will have a direct impact on employability and will support the current wave of optimism sweeping through the oil and gas market; we will have to wait and see.
