Engineers from IHM Stefanini Will Travel to France to Acquire Expertise and Work on the Brazilian Submarine Project PROSUB, Repositioning the National Shipbuilding Industry in This Type of Project

IHM Stefanini announced its participation in the construction of the first Brazilian nuclear submarine, the SN Álvaro Alberto. The project is part of the Submarine Development Program (PROSUB), established in 2008 through a technology transfer agreement between Brazil and France.

The project will be coordinated by Naval Group, a world reference in naval defense. IHM Stefanini was chosen from over 70 companies through rigorous evaluations and audits that, in addition to technical competence, also considered the ability to manage high-complexity projects.

PROSUB

PROSUB plans the construction of four conventionally powered (Diesel-electric) submarines and one Nuclear-powered submarine, the first of its kind to be manufactured in Brazil.
The Humaitá is the second of the four and is expected to be ready by the end of 2022.

The first submarine of the program was launched into the sea on December 14 of last year and was named Riachuelo (S40) and its sea trial is scheduled for this year.
The sea trial for the Humaitá (S-41) is planned for 2020, the Tonelero (S42) in 2021, and the Angostura (S43) in 2022. Source: IHM Stefanini

Mother and daughter build a 70 m² house with more than 8,000 discarded glass bottles and impress with their creativity; known as the Casa de Sal, the property is located on Itamaracá Island, in Pernambuco.

Workers were opening a new road connection near the Marginal Tietê when they found, in the underground of the construction site, remnants of locomotives, wagons, and boilers from the 19th century linked to the forgotten history of Lapa.

Instead of burning or burying old tires, an American city is transforming about 2,000 of them into the street itself, paving its first sections with a quieter and more durable rubber asphalt.

China transforms desert-devastated area into the world’s largest artificial forest, planting trees for 60 years, blocking sand that reached Beijing, and creating a “green lung” of 92,000 hectares in a region once considered lost.

He transformed an abandoned plastic water tank into an underground house in the “hobbit hole” style, using only repurposed pallet wood, without heavy machinery or expensive labor.

Greek island offers free housing for volunteers, but there’s a condition: you need to take care of rescued cats.

The river that “dies” in the desert never reaches the sea and yet gives life to one of Africa’s largest natural refuges in a truly impressive way.

Drivers with licenses nearing expiration received an unexpected reprieve on the calendar, but the Contran extension only applies to those within specific dates.

Embrapa takes cashew, peanuts, and sesame to the world’s largest seed bank in Norway, where Brazil has already stored more than 8,000 samples since 2012 against pests and climate change.

China prepares mBridge, a new digital payment system with blockchain that promises transactions in seconds, lower fees, and the advancement of the digital renminbi while aiming to reduce dependence on the dollar in global trade.

Norway will excavate 3 million cubic meters of rock to open a 1,700-meter maritime tunnel, where ships will pass through a mountain in 10 minutes, escaping a stretch that has killed more than 30 people since 1900.

São Paulo accelerates basic sanitation with R$ 70 billion until 2029, expands treated water, sewage, and promises to advance universalization four years ahead of the national deadline.
