Record Receipt of Diesel Oil
The Cattalini Maritime Terminals experienced a significant event with the arrival of the tanker “Fair World.” This historic milestone stands out for the unique operation of unloading 72,000 m³ of diesel oil, surpassing previous operations that averaged 50,000 m³. This impressive volume not only reinforces the operational capacity of the terminal but also establishes a new standard for future operations.
The “Fair World,” at an impressive 228.19 meters in length, fully occupied the outer berth of the pier. This scale demonstrates the private pier’s ability to accommodate large vessels, an essential attribute for the efficient handling of large volumes of products.
Excellence in Infrastructure and Safety
Lucas Guzen, senior commercial manager of Cattalini, highlights the significant advances of the terminal. “Thanks to investments in dredging, security, and monitoring, along with our highly qualified teams, we are ready to effectively manage vessels up to 229 meters in length.” This level of preparedness ensures that complex and large-scale operations, such as the reception of the “Fair World,” are conducted with maximum control and safety.

The unloading operation of the diesel oil is scheduled to last approximately 50 continuous hours. A notable feature of this operation is the exclusive use of three pipelines for import, an uncommon approach in the terminal’s daily routine. This strategy reflects the terminal’s commitment to optimizing and expediting its operations.
Distribution and Economic Impact
The imported diesel oil, an essential part of the Light Oil Derivatives, along with gasoline, will occupy 15 tanks at the Storage Center 3 (CT3). The distribution of this cargo will be carried out via road and rail modal, following meticulous planning that meets the needs of the customers responsible for the imported product.
The operation of the “Fair World” at the Cattalini Terminal is not only a logistical feat but also an indicator of the increasing growth and efficiency in the maritime terminal sector. This event reinforces the terminal’s position as a key point in the import of diesel oil, positively impacting the supply chain and the petroleum derivatives market.
Conclusion
The arrival of the tanker “Fair World” at the Cattalini Terminal marks a transformative moment in the maritime sector. The ability to handle record volumes of diesel oil not only demonstrates the terminal’s competency and advanced infrastructure but also establishes a new precedent for the future of maritime operations. This milestone not only benefits Cattalini Maritime Terminals but also reinforces its crucial role in the economy and international trade.
