The President Of Petrobras Confirmed The Interest In Installing A Lubricants Plant At Comperj To Operate From A Connection With Reduc

Great news for Itaboraí! Roberto Castello Branco, President of Petrobras, confirmed this Wednesday morning, December 4, that he is interested in implementing a lubricants unit at Comperj to operate from a connection with Reduc, a refinery in Duque de Caxias.  Offshore contractor announces at 8:30 AM today, many job openings for Macaé

Castello Branco: ”We have two plans. We announced a partnership with Equinor for the construction of thermoelectric plants in the Comperj area. Another plan is to use equipment from Comperj to produce state-of-the-art lubricants at Reduc, RJ.”

Instead of installing new equipment at Reduc, the idea is to have a pipeline from Reduc to Comperj. This is a Petrobras-only project and there is no estimated investment yet; it is just an idea, concluded Castello Branco.

Reduc, with the sale of the other refineries, will undergo modernization. In the refineries, we will invest US$ 6 billion over four years.

  • According to the president of the state company, Petrobras wants to invest US$ 6 billion over four years in modernizing the refining park. If the sale of the eight units is successful, the capacity will be concentrated in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo.

The announcement was made by Roberto Castello Branco, President of Petrobras, in an interview with Valor.

Toyo Setal Won The Bid For Works At Comperj

A bid in the Comperj that lasted a year has finally come to an end with Toyo Setal’s victory. The works will complete the construction of the utilities for the project.

The works at Comperj, in Itaboraí, which have been stalled since 2015 and now have the UPGN being built by Kerui Metodo, will have another important part resumed.
