The Port of Paranagua’s East Export Corridor, known as Corex, is undergoing renovation work. While the new soybean crop still grows in the fields, the port, at the other end of the logistics chain, is adjusting its structure and operating system to meet the intense grain demand, which should grow more pronounced from March onwards. “These are essential services to ensure that we will be able to hit the target volume of shipments, guarantee the good performance of the equipment, reduce operating costs, enlarge productivity, and reduce unwanted periods with no activities during the year,” says the director president of Portos do Paraná, Luiz Fernando Garcia. Every year electromechanical maintenance interventions happen. Victor Kengo, the public company’s director of maintenance engineering, explains that planning for the corridor’s next scheduled annual maintenance shutdown begins as soon as this year’s services are completed.
