The Norwegian Shipbuilder Havyard Delivered a Sixth Anchor Handling Vessel to the Brazilian Shipping Company Grupo CBO.

Havyard said on Friday that the outcome of the cooperation with CBO is reliable and economical vessels, adapted to Brazilian conditions with greater width and deck capacity. A total of six Havyard 843 Anchor Handling Tug Supply (AHTS) vessels have already been delivered to the Brazilian shipping company. The contract for four ships was signed in 2014 and an agreement for two more in 2016. The contracts with the Brazilian shipping company resulted from Havyard increasing its focus on the South American market starting in 2011.

The first contract between Grupo CBO and Havyard was, at the time, the largest individual contract signed by Havyard Design & Solutions, with an approximate value of NOK 180 million (US $ 21.6 million at current exchange rates). The deal for the two additional vessels was valued at over NOK 80 million (US $ 9.63 million at current rates).

The CEO of Havyard Group, Geir Johan Bakke, said: “The cooperation with Grupo CBO has been extremely educational and exciting. Through good communication and mutual understanding with CBO, we have been able to deliver a product that both parties are very satisfied with.”

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt has ceased to be a climatic phenomenon and has become a biological system that feeds on itself, with 8,000 kilometers in length, 37 million tons of algae, and scientists confirm that it is now permanent.

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.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Engineers had to pour concrete mixed with tons of ice throughout entire nights in the Dubai desert to erect the Burj Khalifa; any carelessness could clog the pipes half a mile high.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.

In a locked room of a R$ 220 million mansion in Brazil about to be demolished, a R$ 400,000 Brancusi sculpture has just been found.

Owner of the largest pig farm on the planet, the Chinese company Muyuan Foods sent executives to Mato Grosso to study pig production in Brazil, as a step by China to get closer to the source of feed and ensure food security, although the investment has not yet been confirmed.

Archaeologists discovered in Pompeii the remains of a man who faced the eruption of Vesuvius holding a bowl on his head as a shield, a lamp to light the way, and ten bronze coins to restart life, in a find that confirms the account written by Pliny the Younger almost 2,000 years ago.

At 16 years old and without money to buy equipment, a student from the Sertão of Paraíba built his first telescope with two margarine buckets and a wall mirror, and today he brings space observations to schools and squares in the region with increasingly powerful devices.
