The Naval Pole of the Suape Port Industrial Complex delivered another ship built in Pernambuco. Governor Paulo Cรขmara and the president of Suape, Marcos Baptista, were on Friday afternoon (27/4) at the Vard Promar Shipyard to participate in the delivery ceremony of the ship Skandi Recife, the highest value-added vessel ever built in Brazil with high technology and which was built by 1.100 workers from Pernambuco at the shipyard.
The PLSV (Pipe Laying Support Vessel) vessel received R$ 1 billion in investments. The vessel has state-of-the-art technology and high precision, in addition to a dynamic operating system that leaves it stationary at sea even with the incidence of currents and winds. The ship also has a tower with a capacity for 340 tons of flexible lines that connect the wells to the oil production lines. The Skandi Recife is the first ship of its kind produced by Vard Promar.
Measuring 140 meters long and 28 meters wide, the Skandi Recife was delivered to the company Dofcon Navegaรงรฃo, which will grant the vessel to Petrobras for eight years. The delivery was celebrated by the Vard Group's senior vice-president for Brazil, Guilherme Coelho. Proud, the executive said that no place in Brazil is capable of making the ship that the Vard workers completed.

I had the opportunity to see this shipyard being born here in Pernambuco and start this story of Vard Promar, which, today, delivers a high-tech ship built on Pernambuco soil and by Pernambuco. I know the importance of this shipbuilding industry for Pernambuco, how it attracts jobs, how it makes a difference in the lives of so many people. And we know that the workforce that is dedicated, every day, to making and building ships for the Vard Promar group is made up of people from Pernambuco who studied and trained and, today, are ready and prepared for an increasingly more future. competitive and making ships that reached an international standardโ, said Governor Paulo Cรขmara.
โThe shipbuilding industry in Pernambuco generates almost five thousand direct jobs and makes every one of us Brazilians proud. We all need to work so that this industry continues to generate jobs and wealth for our countryโ, said Marcos Baptista. Skandi Recife is the fourth ship delivered by Vard Promar. The previous three were of the gaseous type. Two other vessels are being finalized and should be delivered later this year, another PLSV and a gas tanker.
