After An Intense Assembly With The Creditors Of Ecovix, Its Shipyard Will Now Be Able To Resume Activities
Great and sensational news for the Estaleiro Rio Grande, which belongs to Ecovix in Brazil. Its creditors showed sensitivity and allowed the plan to recover the company, along with one of its largest naval hubs in Brazil, in Rio Grande Do Sul. The majority voted in favor, with 84 votes for and 11 against the project; this session lasted about 4 hours on June 26. The idea is that this project can serve as a precedent for other idle shipyards across Brazil.

How The Crisis At Ecovix Started
To recap, Petrobras hired Ecovix in 2010 to build 8 platform hulls, and after 3 years, the activities were interrupted when the Lava Jato operations were initiated, practically halting all of the state-owned company’s activities at that time. By the end of 2016, the project, which cost more than 9 billion reais, was aborted, causing mass layoffs of over 3 thousand workers.
