After 6 Years Moored at the Shipyard and 95% of the Work Completed, the Oil Tanker IRMÃ DULCE from Transpetro Ended Up Succumbing to Abandonment and Lack of Maintenance

The NT (Oil Tanker) IRMÃ DULCE from Transpetro suffered flooding in its engine room and partially sank at the dock of Mauá Shipyard in Niterói (RJ). After being moored for 6 years with no prospects for continuing its construction, the ship may have sustained structural damage from the time without maintenance or have had some important item “cannibalized” (a term used in the shipbuilding industry when an item is taken from one vessel to be used on another).

Ships that were once considered the great “boom” of shipbuilding, after all, Transpetro contracted 42 of them from national shipyards, are now rotting at their finishing docks and, in dire straits, the shipyards have laid off their employees and created the biggest crisis that national shipbuilding has ever seen.
