Expansion Works at the Port of Antonina, Paraná, Will Double the Terminal’s Handling Capacity and Generate 500 Jobs in Construction and Operation

The Ponta do Felix Port Terminal (TPPF), located at the Port of Antonina in Paraná, will undergo expansion and modernization works for its entire infrastructure, requiring investments of around R$ 150 million. Port of Macaé Has Construction Approval Granted by the Judiciary!
Currently, a R$ 70 million project is underway for the construction of a new warehouse for fertilizers (17,000 square meters), aiming to hold 120,000 tons of product.

Another phase, involving an additional R$ 25 million in the next 9 months, foresees the construction of a set of vertical silos for grains, feed, and cereals.
This part of the project has already been contracted and is in the mobilization phase for labor and equipment.

The TPPF expansion project also includes the extension of the docking pier by 170 meters. So far, over R$ 300 million has been invested in equipment and warehouse constructions.
A dredging of the access channel to the terminal is also expected to allow for a greater number of ships in operation, as the draft will increase to 9.5 m later this year.

With the completion of the dredging and ongoing works, the terminal’s handling capacity is expected to increase from the current 2 million tons to 4 million tons/year, aiding the economy of the state of Paraná.

Jobs

The terminal at the Port of Antonina is the first port established on the coast of Paraná and also the largest generator of jobs and income in the region.

The CEO of TPPF, Gilberto Birkhan, spoke optimistically about the project: “The expansion of the Terminal will further strengthen the Port of Antonina, job creation, income, and economic development,” he said.
According to Birkhan, the expansion works of TPPF will create over 500 new jobs, with 260 workers hired during the construction and an additional 240 hired for the operational phase.

A strong cold front is advancing across Brazil now, but researchers warn that extreme heat is expected to increase, affect work capacity, reduce people’s income, and cause billion-dollar economic losses in the coming decades.

The fastest-growing risk in Brazilian cities isn’t only apparent during heavy rainfall; it has already increased by 145% since 1985, covers 1.2 million hectares, and can transform floods and inundations into an increasingly common threat.
