is also open the tender for the Inhaúma shipyard, until then managed by Petrobras and which is also located in the port region of Rio de Janeiro.
The state-owned company believes that the Inhaúma shipyard has great potential for using the logistical bases of offshore companies. The area of this development corresponds to 321.612 m², with 6 berths for mooring large vessels, equipment storage areas, workshop and even 2 wharves and 2 dikes (one dry and one wet).
Proposals from companies interested in renting the Inhaúma shipyard must be submitted by March 4th. However, what is said is that Petrobras should extend this deadline.
The Inhaúma shipyard has been inactive since 2016, after cases of corruption scandals involving Petrobras that were revealed through the Lava Jato operation.
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 and the shipbuilding industry itself and fishing warehouse, which would generate direct jobs.
