After a period of negotiations, the transfer of shares took place on December 30, 2019, an event already marked by the announcement of the main project, which is the expansion of the Port. With a total area of 78,000 square meters, the Port Terminal is located in the municipality of Angra dos Reis, in the Bay of Ilha Grande, south coast of the State of Rio de Janeiro, and is an important logistics center for supporting projects and cargo movements. When questioned about the new acquisition, one of the partners of Splenda Offshore, Paulo Narcélio, stated that “we are motivated by the acquisition and are confident in providing high-quality services as a port support base for the pre-salt vessels.
With experience in the oil and gas and mining sectors, as well as in other sectors regulated by government agencies, the executives of Splenda Offshore 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 promote workforce training and job generation, 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.
