The Sergipe plant will be the first to receive the input as part of the new business, with an average volume of 1.1 million m³ per day, while the Bahia plant will receive an average of 1.2 million m³/d, with an expected start date in March.

There are 3,700 km along Brazil’s coastal region, passing through almost 200 municipalities in nine Brazilian states – Ceará, Rio Grande do Norte, Paraíba, Pernambuco, Alagoas, Sergipe, Bahia, Espírito Santo, and Rio de Janeiro – and another 800 km in the Amazon, connecting the oil-producing region of Urucu to Manaus in Amazonas.
