The Auction Of Airports, Including Congonhas, Took Place At 2 PM And The Investment Forecast Is About R$ 7.3 Billion

The Congonhas Airport and 14 other airports were taken to an auction this Thursday, 18, during the 7th round of the airport concession program, held by Anac (National Civil Aviation Agency).

The auction took place at 2 PM at B3 and was divided into three blocks. The 15 airports, including Congonhas, together account for about 15.8% of Brazil’s passenger traffic and will be granted to the private sector for a period of 30 years. The investment forecast over the period is about R$ 7.3 billion.

The interest in the auction for the three blocks was validated by the Minister of Infrastructure, Marcelo Sampaio, via social media. “We continue to work without optimism or pessimism, but making it happen and ensuring the advancement of the country’s infrastructure. On August 18, we will be hammering down at B3, auctioning off 15 airports from the 3 blocks of the 7th round,” said the minister.

Airport Auction Was Divided Into Three Blocks

Divided into three blocks, the auction granted terminals located in six Brazilian states. They are: Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Pará, Minas Gerais, Mato Grosso do Sul, and Amapá. Below is the division:

Block SP-MS-PA-MG – Headlined by Congonhas Airport (SP), the block also consists of Campo Grande, Corumbá, and Ponta Porã airports in Mato Grosso do Sul (MS); Santarém, Marabá, Parauapebas, and Altamira in Pará (PA); Uberlândia, Uberaba, and Montes Claros in Minas Gerais (MG). The minimum initial bid is R$ 740.1 million.

General Aviation Block – Comprises Campo de Marte Airport in São Paulo (SP) and Jacarepaguá Airport in Rio de Janeiro (RJ), with a minimum initial bid of R$ 141.4 million.

North II Block – Consists of Belém (PA) and Macapá (AP) airports, with a minimum initial bid of R$ 56.9 million.

The company that acquired Congonhas Airport in the auction will also be responsible for managing 10 other terminals. They are: Corumbá, Campo Grande, and Ponta Porã in Mato Grosso do Sul; Carajás, Santarém, Marabá, and Altamira in Pará; and Uberlândia, Uberaba, and Montes Claros in Minas Gerais.

The second block of airports includes terminals for small aircraft, such as Campo de Marte and Jacarepaguá. The third block offered two airports in capitals of the Northern region of the country, in Belém (PA) and Macapá (AP).

Expectations With The Airport Auction

In June of this year, the federal government declared that it expected to reach the end of 2022 with 50 terminals auctioned for private sector management. If this forecast is realized, R$ 18 billion in private investments will be contracted.

This second semester was also expected to see the auction of Santos Dumont Airport and the relicitation of Galeão. However, after disagreements with the government of Rio de Janeiro, the projects were postponed to 2023.

The initial plan was for the bidding of Santos Dumont to occur alongside that of Congonhas Airport, but it was auctioned in conjunction with Galeão Airport. Thus, the winning company will manage both assets in Rio.

Expectations With The Airport Auction

A village with 115 inhabitants wants new residents: it offers a house, a job, up to 44 thousand euros in benefits, almost free rent, an annual grant of 8 thousand euros for 3 years, and a 20 thousand euro incentive for businesses in the mountains of Italy.

NASA is offering US$ 750,000 to people from anywhere in the world who solve a problem that could decide survival on Mars: creating food for astronauts without relying on resupply from Earth.

Elon Musk’s internet comes to mobile: Starlink technology connects smartphones without an antenna via satellite, works even without carrier signal, already costs just US$10 extra in the US, and could arrive in Brazil as an included benefit.

While countries spend billions to draw water from the sea, a Nobel-winning scientist creates a container-sized machine that extracts up to 1,000 liters per day from dry air and uses ultrasound to release water in minutes, even in the middle of the desert.

After 16 years and almost 600 prototypes, a Chinese inventor unveils the world’s smallest and cheapest manned jet, at just 3.80 meters long and costing US$7.2 thousand in materials.

Belgium will sink 23 giant concrete caissons, each weighing 22,000 tons, in the North Sea to build the world’s first artificial energy island 45 km off the coast, forming offshore electrical walls.

With a wingspan of 152 meters, 76 tires, and a capacity to carry 1,270 tons, the Boeing Pelican was the giant “flying ship” that promised to cross oceans close to the water on an invisible air cushion beneath its wings.

Car dealerships avoid these used cars like they’re bombs: famous engines, problematic belts, and expensive transmissions can turn a common purchase into a huge loss in the USA.

Germany installed vertical solar panels on a lake in Bavaria, and the result broke conventional logic: instead of producing energy at midday peak, the plant generates more early in the morning and in the evening, exactly when families turn on appliances and factories are in full swing.

More than 160 million gallons of water, equivalent to 240 Olympic swimming pools, need to be pumped to remove a 100,000-ton nuclear aircraft carrier from dry dock; each of these ships undergoes a complete overhaul costing US$2.8 billion.

With installments starting from R$ 999 per month, a 75 hp 1.0 engine, a 7-inch TFT digital panel, and standard stability control, the Citroën C3 is the cheapest hatchback in Brazil in 2026 and still leaves Kwid, Argo, and Mobi behind in onboard technology.
