Vast Infrastructure Completed Its Thousandth Operation at T-Oil, at the Port of Açu, Strengthening Its Leadership in Brazil’s Oil Exports.
Vast Infrastructure reached a significant milestone in its journey by completing, on Saturday (3), its thousandth oil transshipment operation at the T-Oil terminal, located at the Port of Açu, in northern Rio de Janeiro.
The operation symbolizes the accumulated movement of 1 billion barrels since the company’s activities began in 2016. In 2024 alone, the company was responsible for about 40% of the total volume of crude oil exported by Brazil, moving approximately 25.2 million tons — out of a national total of 64 million in the same period.

The T-Oil, a terminal operated by Vast Infrastructure at the Port of Açu, stands out as the only private terminal in the country capable of receiving VLCC (Very Large Crude Carrier) ships, the largest oil tankers in the world.

More than 40 Petrobras platforms enter the decommissioning queue and open up a billion-dollar industry in Brazil for cranes, special ships, underwater cutting, and offshore recycling.
The structure is considered the most modern in Brazil in the segment and has already received investments exceeding US$ 500 million.
Currently, the terminal has a license to operate up to 1.2 million barrels of oil per day, playing a strategic role in export logistics.
With a constant growth in global demand and Brazilian oil production, Vast Infrastructure has been positioning itself as a key player in the sector’s advancement.
“Today Brazil exports about 1.7 million barrels per day. With new exploratory campaigns and the increase in Brazilian production, this number could reach 3.5 million at the beginning of the next decade. Vast’s terminal is the leader in the country in oil exports, the main product of Brazil’s trade balance. This demonstrates the strategic importance of T-Oil and the Port of Açu for the national economy,” says Victor Snabaitis Bomfim, the company’s CEO.
Vast Infrastructure’s Operations with Major Operators
The relevance of Vast Infrastructure is also reflected in its client portfolio.
Today, the terminal serves 11 global oil and gas operators operating in Brazil, including: Petrobras, Shell, TotalEnergies, Equinor, Repsol, Galp, Petronas, and PetroChina.
The growing demand has led the company to start studies to expand its operational capacity and keep pace with the sector’s expansion.
