The global leader in testing, inspection, and certification (TIC), Bureau Veritas, opened the OPM Laboratory (Oil, Petrochemicals, and Minerals) in Fortaleza, Ceará. The new laboratory ensures the quality of petroleum products, as well as inspecting the volume of cargo imported and exported by Brazil and other countries in North America, Europe, and Asia in the first half of 2022.
In Ceará, fuel distributors sold more than 576,700 cubic meters of fuel in the first half of 2022, 5.8% more than in the first half of 2021, despite high prices in the state. The increase in gasoline consumption and the increase in diesel consumption were 5.8% and 0.38%, respectively, compared to 2021.
“Bureau Veritas has been working to build a more trusted world through rigorous quality control procedures across different industries for nearly 200 years. Our certifications are internationally recognized, providing greater security for businesses. The laboratory in Fortaleza has been meeting a growing demand in the region for greater efficiency in sampling and inspection, as well as for improved efficiency of cargo entering and leaving the ports of Fortaleza and Pecem,” says Guilherme Cauduro, Executive Director of Agribusiness & Commodities at Bureau Veritas.
