The Cargill and Louis Dreyfus terminals are on the export flow route of agricultural bulk through the Northern Arc and are responsible for the handling of solid bulk, mainly vegetable products.

According to data from the National Supply Company (Conab), from January to August last year, about 34% of soybeans sold to the external market were shipped through the ports of the Northern Arc.

The other two terminals, Petróleo Sabbá and ABI, have as their areas of influence the cities of Itaituba and Santarém. In these locations, liquid fuels will be handled, destined for storage, distribution, and regional fuel supply.
