The Wellboat manufactured by Estaleiro Detroit in Itajaí is a vessel designed for the transportation of live fish, in this case, salmon. The vessel is intended to collect fish from underwater farms and transport it live in its tanks to the processing industry on the coast.

Through a series of special equipment installed aboard the vessel, it allows the ship to control the renewal, purity, temperature, oxygen level, and acidity (pH) of the water during transport.

In addition to the launch of the Wellboat in the morning, Estaleiro Detroit in Itajaí – Santa Catarina also took the PSV Starnav Aquila out of the dock in the afternoon.

The Starnav Aquila underwent a 5-year class dry docking over the past weeks, with plans to head out for sea trials next week. The two maneuvers on Saturday at Estaleiro Detroit were supported by the tugboats Starnav Electra (80 Ton) and C Quartzo (64 Ton) from Camorim, which left the Port of Paranaguá (PR) last Friday (24). After completing activities in Itajaí, both tugboats returned to the operating port on Saturday (25).

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

Goodbye steel rebar? Scientists create 3D-printed plastic reinforcement that “bites” into concrete, prevents corrosion, and could change beams, slabs, and bridges in civil construction.

Small, automatic, and reliable car for around R$ 50,000: Kia Picanto combines economy, structural safety, good internal quality, and durable mechanics, but tests show that it makes sense mainly for urban use and not for those who frequently drive on highways.
