Vast Infraestrutura completed its thousandth operation at T-Oil, in Porto do Açu, consolidating its leadership in Brazil's oil exports.

Vast Infraestrutura reached an expressive milestone in its trajectory by completing, on Saturday (3), its thousandth transshipment operation oil at the T-Oil terminal, located in Porto do Açu, in the north of Rio de Janeiro.

The operation symbolizes the accumulated movement of 1 billion barrels since the company began its activities in 2016. In 2024 alone, the company was responsible for around 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.

T-Oil: technology and capacity at the service of oil exports

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

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 constant growth in global demand and Brazilian production of oil, Vast Infraestrutura has been positioning itself as a key player in the sector’s advancement.

“Today, Brazil exports around 1,7 million barrels per day. With new exploration campaigns and increased Brazilian production, this number could reach 3,5 million at the beginning of the next decade. Vast’s terminal is the country’s leader in oil exports, the main product in 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, CEO of the company.

Vast Infraestrutura's performance with large operators

Vast Infraestrutura’s relevance 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 led the company to begin studies to expand its operational capacity and keep up with the pace of expansion in the sector.
