CCGL’s terminal at the Port of Rio Grande is expected to quadruple its vessel loading capacity after the completion of an investment package estimated at up to R$700 million. The works are being carried out at Termasa, a grain terminal located in the Rio Grande port complex and are scheduled for completion by October 2026. According to the company’s vice president, Guillermo Dawson Junior, the main change will be the pace at which cargo is loaded. “Termasa used to load 1,500 tonnes per hour. It will now load 6,000 tonnes per hour. That means its loading capacity will increase fourfold,” he said. The terminal will also be able to handle larger vessels. Its current structure serves ships of up to 60,000 tonnes. After the work, it will be able to receive vessels of up to 150,000 tonnes.
