After a period of negotiations, the transfer of shares took place on December 30, 2019, a fact already marked by the announcement of the main project, which is the expansion of the Port. With a total area of ​​78 square meters, the Port Terminal is located in the municipality of Angra dos Reis, in Ilha Grande Bay, on the southern coast of the State of Rio de Janeiro, and is an important logistics center for supporting projects and transporting charge. When asked about the new acquisition, one of Splenda Offshore's partners, Paulo Narcélio, stated that “we are motivated by the acquisition and are sure to provide high quality services as a support port base for pre-salt vessels.

With experience in the oil and gas and mining sectors, as well as in other sectors regulated by government agencies, Splenda Offshore executives intend to transform the Port Terminal into a base for the offshore market due to oil exploration in the pre-salt layer. Strategically located in sheltered waters right in the middle of the Santos Basin, the expansion of the Port of Angra will encourage the training of labor and job creation, in addition to attracting new developments to the region. “We are confident that the Port Terminal of Angra dos Reis (TPAR), now under the management of Splenda Offshore, will have a new dynamic.

Splenda has a project to take advantage of Angra's strategic location to support the exploration platforms for new wells in the Santos Basin, which will make TPAR an important offshore support base, with new business and job opportunities for Angra dos Reis. We wish Splenda much success in this undertaking, which will have the full support of our port authority for its success.” said the Director of Market Relations and Planning at Companhia Docas do Rio de Janeiro (CRDJ), Jean Paulo Silva.

The Port Terminal has a new Board of Directors made up of executives Paulo Narcélio Amaral, Leandro Cariello and Luiz Menezes. The New Board is formed by João Paulo Amaral, as Director of New Businesses, Jefferson Martins, CFO, Fábio Portugal, as Commercial Director and Marcos Almeida as Director of Operations.
