Video Reveals Details of Crane and Reel Accident at Port of Açu, No Injuries, But Warning for Risks in Port Operations

On July 25, 2025, around 12 p.m., a serious industrial accident was recorded at the Port of Açu. The incident involved the tipping over of a giant crane during a lifting operation.

How the Accident Happened at Port of Açu

The ground under the crane suddenly gave way. This caused the machine to lose stability and topple towards the quay and the sea.

In the video, you can see the large blue reel being lifted in the port yard. With the tipping of the crane, the reel also rolled and fell into the water.

The area was marked with safety cones. Workers were able to evacuate quickly, avoiding injuries.

Fortunately, there were no injuries in this accident, only material damage. The full video shows every detail of this impressive moment.

Risks, Prevention, and What Port Security Says

Accidents like this highlight the importance of constant ground inspection in heavy cargo operations. The soil in ports can present unexpected settling, especially near the quay.

Experts in the port and offshore sectors remind that structural analyses are essential. The use of monitoring technologies can prevent significant losses and risks to life, as occurred at Cherne 1 Petrobras last year.

Preventive maintenance, team training, and evacuation protocols make a difference in critical moments like this. The incident serves as a warning for the entire sector.

The Port of Açu has launched an investigation to determine the causes of the accident. Measures will be taken to enhance safety and prevent new occurrences.
