Vast announced on 18/01 the signing of a new contract with the oil company, which aims to boost both companies in the business oil export to the international market.
With the signing of the contract for oil transshipment operations, Vast becomes Petronas' main logistics partner for the export of fuel in Brazil.
The new business therefore marks an even greater presence of the infrastructure company in the oil customs operations in the region of Porto do Açu, located in the state of Rio de Janeiro.
In addition, it expands the company's customer base in early 2023. Vast is responsible for 30% of Brazilian oil exports and has handled more than 540 million barrels since the beginning of its operations.
Now, with operations at the Port of Açu Terminal with Petronas, it will manage to become even more relevant not only on the national scene, but also internationally.
“This achievement is the direct result of the dedication of our teams and our focus on operational excellence, safety and respect for the environment,” the company said in a statement.
