Hine’s Representative Talks About the Company’s Growth and How It Drives New Job Opportunities in the Wind Energy Sector
Rogério Nunes, Hine’s commercial manager, attended Brazil Windpower 2022 and spoke about the company’s growth and how it impacts job generation in the country.
-
The largest South American oil company, Petrobras, is preparing for a historic leap in production with new FPSO platforms and the expansion of refining — projects that could add up to 900,000 barrels per day and strengthen Brazil’s energy security.
-
Billions of barrels in the Equatorial Margin could double Amapá’s oil production in Brazil and attract companies from the Campos Basin.

“In the last three years, we have nearly doubled our workforce, and our projection in the coming years is that this will continue to grow by approximately 20% to 30% until 2025”.
Rogério Nunes, Hine’s Commercial Manager (2022)
Thus, the company is able to bring innovation and technology to wind turbine maintenance, making the service faster. However, the company has a set of tools with this purpose, to improve the services provided.
“With that in mind, we brought a new solution for this year, at this Brazil Windpower event, which are tools for installation, maintenance, and repair of wind turbines. These tools help make it easier for you to assemble wind turbines faster and safely”.
Rogério Nunes, Hine’s Commercial Manager (2022)
Maintenance Is Essential for Reducing Costs with Wind Turbines, and New Tools Are Key for That
For the wind turbine to produce the maximum energy, it needs to be fully operational. Thus, maintenance becomes essential to avoid losses from having the equipment idle or malfunctioning.
In this regard, Hine invests directly to ensure that wind turbines have minimal downtime and that when necessary, they are scheduled for a short period. Therefore, there is cost savings through maintenance optimization.
Moreover, Hine introduces new hydraulic tools that provide strength, precision, and time optimization, allowing for fewer working hours. This way, the company achieves better utilization of operators in wind energy.
Turn Gear Is Innovation Announced in the Wind Energy Sector by Hine’s Representative During Brazil Windpower 2022
Rogério Nunes also talked about Hine’s new device: Turn Gear. This is a tool used to perform an operation as complex as the installation or replacement of wind turbine blades. All with great safety, precision, and reliability for operators and clients.
However, this tool assists in assembling the blades, whether for new wind energy towers or for maintenance. This way, the client needs less and less time to get the wind turbine up and running.
