Following the submission of the EVTEA for a base, the Port of São Sebastião is being considered as a logistical center for Santos Basin offshore operations. The project aims to boost São Paulo’s oil and gas contribution by creating infrastructure to serve offshore platforms and staff, reducing reliance on Rio de Janeiro bases. This proposal should improve state revenue, attract investments, and create jobs. The project is undergoing technical examination and may begin in three years if approved. The feasibility study evaluated infrastructure, accessibility, costs, and risks. To create the Port of São Sebastião as a vital offshore logistics hub in Brazil, authorities emphasized private sector collaboration and São Paulo’s ability to attract skilled personnel and advanced technologies.
