Beaches in Rio at Risk of Closure After Arrival of “Crude Oil”. Rio is the Eleventh State Affected by the Spill of Unknown Origin.

After confirmation that the oil spill that affected the Northeast and Espírito Santo coast reached the state of Rio de Janeiro, the state’s Public Prosecutor’s Office announced that it is assessing the need to close Grussaí Beach, on the northern coast of Fluminense, where oil fragments were detected. In October, we at Click Petróleo e Gás warned that the oil on Northeast beaches would reach Rio de Janeiro.

The Monitoring and Evaluation Group (GAA), formed by the Brazilian Navy (MB), National Petroleum Agency (ANP), and Brazilian Institute of Environment and Renewable Natural Resources (IBAMA), reported on Saturday, 23, that on Friday 22, small fragments of the material – about 300 grams – called “crude oil”, were found and removed at Grussaí Beach, in São João da Barra, on the coast of Rio de Janeiro.

The material was analyzed by the Admiral Paulo Moreira Institute of Marine Studies (IEAPM) and confirmed as “consistent with the oil found on the Northeast and Espírito Santo coasts”, the group stated in the text.

Since the weekend, a group of MB military personnel has been on-site to monitor and clean up the affected area, with the collaboration of Ibama staff.

The advance of the oil slick in national waters prompted a comment from President Jair Bolsonaro. On Saturday, he stated that it is impossible to know how much oil was spilled near the Brazilian coast.

For the president, it is necessary to prepare for the worst scenario. “We would very much like to identify who, in my opinion, committed this criminal act.

Now, we do not know how much oil is in the sea. In the worst-case scenario, a tanker, if it dumped all its cargo into the sea, less than 10% reached our coast, still. Let us prepare for the worst. We pray to God that this does not happen,” he said during an event at the Military Village of Rio de Janeiro.

According to Ibama’s monitoring, the oil spill has affected 720 municipalities along the Brazilian coast. The disaster was initially identified on the beaches of the state of Paraíba in August.

Subsequently, it spread in large quantities through the Northeast. In early November, the oil slick reached the state of Espírito Santo (Southeast) and northern Rio. Thus, the number of Brazilian states affected by the pollutant rose to eleven.
