Founded In 1886, The Caneco Shipyard Became One Of The Main Shipyards In Brazil, Being A Reference In Job Creation Until It Was Declared Bankrupt In 2006. Since Then, The Entire Naval Construction Industry Has Been In Decline.

Some Properties Of Caneco Are Still Occupied By The Naval Industry Companies Intercan Container Terminals And Logistics And Rio Nave Naval Services LTDA.

At The Height Of The Sector, The Enterprise Had The Capacity To Build Ships Weighing Up To 2,500 Tons. The Overhead Crane Had The Capacity To Lift Up To 5,000 Tons.

Payment Of Creditors And Labor Liabilities Are The Priority Of The Caneco Shipyard Leasing

The Justice Of Rio De Janeiro Established That The Priority Of The Caneco Shipyard Auction Is To Facilitate The Payment Of Creditors, Mainly Labor Liabilities.

“The Occupations Resulted From Leasing Contracts, Signed In Different Times And Circumstances, And They Have Already Been Considered And Defined By The Court, In Various Final Decisions, There Is No Pending Issue Today, Thus, There Is No Pending Matter That Could Create Doubt Regarding The Integrity Of The Sale Of The Estate’s Assets”.

The Inhaúma Shipyard Tender Is Also The Hope For The Resumption Of The Brazilian Naval Industry And Job Generation

The Tender For The Inhaúma Shipyard, Previously Managed By Petrobras And Also Located In The Port Region Of Rio De Janeiro, Is Also Opened For Rental.

Petrobras Believes That The Inhaúma Shipyard Has Great Potential For The Use Of Logistics Bases For Offshore Companies. The Area Of This Enterprise Corresponds To 321,612 m², With 6 Berths For Docking Large Vessels, Equipment Storage Areas, A Workshop, And Also 2 Docks And 2 Dikes (One Dry And One Wet).

Proposals From Companies Interested In Renting The Inhaúma Shipyard Must Be Submitted By March 4. However, It Is Said That Petrobras Should Extend This Deadline.

The Inhaúma Shipyard Has Been Inactive Since 2016, Following The Corruption Scandals Involving Petrobras Revealed Through The Operation Lava Jato.

Therefore, With The Caneco And Inhaúma Shipyards Back In Operation, It Is Certain That There Will Be A Strong Recovery Of The Brazilian Economy In Several Sectors, Such As Containers, The Naval Industry, And Fishing Warehouses, Which Would Generate Direct Jobs.
