On Nov 25, Santos Brasil commenced its liquid bulk operations in the Port of Itaqui, marked by the arrival of a cabotage vessel bringing diesel and gasoline to TGL 3, the first of three terminals purchased by the company in 2021 to be granted authorization to operate from the National National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP). The procedure was deemed a success. The TGL 3 has a nominal capacity of 20 thousand m³, distributed in seven tanks for the storage of diesel, gasoline, anhydrous ethanol, and biodiesel. It was one of two brownfields (both of which were already operational) sold at the Sao Paulo stock exchange auction. The other is the TGL 1, which is expected to begin operations later this year. The third terminal (TGL 2, a greenfield) is scheduled to open in 2026.
