With the Deliberation of This License, Petrobras Will Be Able to Receive Larger Vessels and Even Operate in Pre-Salt Areas Starting from Macaé, Bringing the City Back into the National Oil and Gas Market
Currently, the Imbetiba Port, in the city of Macaé and operated by Petrobras, operates in a draft between 6 to 7 meters deep, which allows some vessels to operate and dock. With the Environmental License granted this week, the state company can increase this depth to 9.5 meters, providing new operational possibilities for the port. New larger vessels will also be able to operate in the region after the project is completed.
Understand, this is a demand from Petrobras itself to have more vessels dock at Imbetiba Port, consequently bringing more development and revenue to Macaé.
The state company shows clear indications that it wants to operate more strongly in the offshore field, and the cities in these producing regions are still in Petrobras’s sights, cas reported by the state company itself in March, which you can check in the article here.

The port will also support pre-salt operations starting in 2019, allowing Macaé to return to the national oil and gas market competition. Everything indicates, based on Petrobras’s operations, there will be a greater concentration of vessels and maritime logistics.
Porto do Barreto and the Temporary Embargo
The Terpor (Port Terminal of Macaé) faced an embargo from an environmental organization in São Paulo against the construction of the port in the city, a project that would generate over 10 thousand jobs in the city and would start by the second half of 2019, learn more by accessing the article here, and please sign the petition to strengthen the cause.
Regional authorities are working to reverse this civil action, one of them is Councilor Maxwell Vaz, who is actively leading movements such as “Macaé Porto Já”.
