Aiming to contribute to the naval industry and the development of new programs in Brazil, Nuclep and Emgepron signed a memorandum of understanding at NavalShore to contribute to projects of the Brazilian Navy.

The NavalShore 2022 event, which ended last Thursday (18/08), ensured a series of partnerships in the national naval sector and enabled a series of projects to be carried out in the future. Thus, the companies Nuclebrás Equipamentos Pesados ​​S.A (Nuclep) and the Empresa Gerencial de Projetos Navais (Emgepron) signed a memorandum of understanding to guarantee support and services to the projects of the Brazilian Navy. The partnership is now the companies' new bet for the future of the Brazilian shipbuilding industry.

During their participation at the Naval Technological Cluster stand and in the presence of authorities from several partner companies, the companies Nuclep and Emgepron signed a memorandum of understanding for the support and development of projects aimed at the Brazilian Navy.

The Brazilian naval industry sector will then benefit from the expertise and program solutions of both companies, enabling greater efficiency in Navy projects.

Nuclep's president, Rear Admiral Carlos Henrique Silva Seixas, commented that the partnership and the memorandum of understanding confirm Nuclep's and Emgepron's commitment to the country's naval and strategic projects, with the Brazilian Navy.

He said: “This association makes us see very productive results and a fantastic horizon for the shipbuilding industry. There is great expectation that we will attend important Emgepron projects, such as the construction of ships and even energy. This alliance brings a lot of security in the development and delivery of fundamental works for the country. Nuclep's identity with the Navy is strong, for decades and I thank you once again for the trust that unites us”.

Nuclep's commercial director, Nicola Mirto Neto, highlighted the high potential of the Brazilian naval industry to develop over the next few years, with the need for support from companies and, mainly, the Brazilian Navy.

He also said that Emgepron and Nuclep reinforce the great relevance of the naval sector in Brazil, which has been carrying out a series of projects and solutions of extreme importance to the country. Now, with the new memorandum of understanding, that presence will become even more efficient.
