Cabotage Operation Proved Faster and Cheaper than Road Modal and Involved Giant Transformers for Wind Farm

Leveraging Its Great Potential for national cabotage, the Port of Pecém conducted, on August 9th, Friday, through a container ship, the transport of two power transformers produced by WEG and shipped from the Port of Imbituba, Santa Catarina.

This was the first time the Port of Pecém performed the discharge operation of large equipment; the ship owned by Aliança Navegação took eight days to transport the transformers, each weighing 184.6 tons.

The Choice

The Coordinator of Operations of the Pecém Industrial and Port Complex (CIPP), José Alcântara, explained the choice of cabotage as the fastest and cheapest modal, stating: “Due to the large size of the equipment, if it had been done by land, the transport would take about 30 days.”

A 500-ton crane was rented to carry out the unloading, which took place at berth 8 of the Multi-Utility Terminal (TMUT) and was coordinated by CIPP and executed by APM Terminals, the company operating at the Port of Pecém.

According to Waldir Sampaio, Executive Director of Operations of the Pecém Industrial and Port Complex (CIPP), “This operation opens up a range of possibilities for new similar operations on container ships here at the Port of Pecém, demonstrating its capacity and flexibility to meet new demands. The transformers will now be stored and then transported by land to their final destination.”

Cabotage has proven to be very useful as an efficient and cheap modal. The transformers will be used at a wind farm in Serra do Mel, Rio Grande do Norte.
