Mayor of Macaé talks about the construction of Terpor

According to Welberth Rezende, mayor of Macaé, underwater sounding operations for the construction of the port began today (15) and received a millionaire investment, just in this first phase. Rezende was at the pier of the Macaé Yacht Club, and it will be from there that the sounding platform will leave for the ocean.

These operations serve as the basis for the works that will begin in the coming months. The mayor took the opportunity to deliver the necessary documents for the start of the works.

There was also the consultant for the Vale Azul Group and also responsible for the Terpor project, José Eduardo Carramenha, and the secretaries of Economic Development, Rodrigo Viana and of Energy Policies, Juninho Luna.

The mayor of Macaé states that Terpor will be accompanied by a new Natural Gas Processing Unit (UPGN), which will have a capacity of 60 million m3. To get an idea of ​​the size of the project, the largest UPGN in Latin America has 25 million m3.

Terpor works will unlock the job market in Macaé

On hold since 2020, the works at Terpor promise to generate around 17 new jobs over a period of three years. The port of Macaé will have two port terminals and a unit that processes natural gas, mentioned above. In 2019, the project received a preliminary environmental license, which approved the location and design of the port terminal.

The next step would be just the construction license for the beginning of the works. The scheduled date for Terpor to begin its operations was in 2022. However, as construction only started this year and, following this logic, the dates should change to the end of 2023 or 2024.

Terpor will have 6 million square meters

Occupying a land area of ​​6.000.000 m2, the port will have storage yards and also bonded warehouses. Terminal A consists of a liquid terminal and offshore support, and will be connected to land by means of a bridge of approximately 4 km, with a depth of 16,5 meters.

Terminal B, on the other hand, will be used for the handling of oil and has two berths, with a depth of about 27 meters, to receive VLCC vessels. In addition, the terminal will have the capacity to handle up to 2 million barrels per day.
