The administration of the Port of Suape announced investments of R$59 million in maintenance and rehabilitation works for the infrastructure of the port complex. The goal is to make it more competitive and attractive to new businesses. Ongoing interventions include the structural restoration of the jetty that protects the external port (an area that houses four piers and the multi-use pier, for loading and unloading operations); recovery of the Liquid Bulk Pier 2 (PGL-2); port roads (drainage and paving); leveling of the seabed; and construction of a new control tower (local base where vessel traffic management is carried out). Most of the works are already in progress, with completion scheduled for the end of the year. Parallel to these interventions, Suape has been investing in the maintenance of large areas of the port structures. This month, Liquid Bulk Pier 3 (PGL-3), responsible for oil, diesel, and cooking gas operations, in addition to ship-to-ship operations, benefited from the exchange of two fenders, parts responsible for absorbing the impact of the vessel during docking at the pier.
