Petrobras Is Interested in the Construction of the Açu Helipad in São João da Barra; Completion of the Work Is Scheduled for August 2020

Petrobras is interested in the construction of the Norte Fluminense Aerodrome – Açu Helipad in São João da Barra. According to the schedule presented yesterday, 16, by the director of Aeropart, Francisco Pinto, to Mayor Carla Machado, construction of the Açu Helipad, which has a 40-year contract in the municipality, will begin in February.

The expectation is that the work will be completed in the early second half of this year, more precisely in August. The helipad will be built on an area of 210 thousand square meters, 15 kilometers from the Açu Port Complex.

Carla presented to the representatives of Aeropart the infrastructure offered by the municipality. The mayor also requested that the company hire workers from the municipality. “I ask for the awareness of the Aeropart group regarding the hiring of labor and the use of our services,” she emphasized.

Initially, a helipad will be implemented, functioning as a public civil aerodrome. The idea is to eventually have a runway for airplanes.

Aeropart has already obtained an environmental license from Inea, deliberation from the Brazilian Air Force Command (Comaer), and authorization from the National Civil Aviation Agency (Anac). “We just need the license from the City Hall. We have already talked to the Secretary of Works and Services, Alexandre Magno, to meet all legal requirements,” said Francisco.

In addition to meeting the demands of the Açu Port, the Helipad also attracts the interest of Petrobras, attracting the visit of representatives from the state-owned company to the area that is already being prepared for construction earlier this week.

The representatives of Aeropart presented the mayor with the certificate of the Aerial Transport 2018, from Petrobras – Award of the Excellence Program in Air and Maritime Transport Operations – for performance in the management and safety of the Land Aerodrome.
