CODEBA divulges upcoming auction for dredging work at Ilhéus Port in Bahia
Aug, 21, 2020 Posted by datamarnewsWeek 202034
On August 20, Companhia das Docas do Estado do Bahia (CODEBA) published a bidding notice in the Official Gazette, with the objective of hiring a company to carry out maintenance dredging of the Port of Ilhéus. It is using an electronic auction method, with proposals to be submitted as of August 24th.
With the work, CODEBA intends to restore the port´s draft to 10.5 meters, thus allowing larger ships to have access, and doubling the cargo capacity, as well as benefiting cruise ships. This will lead to a boost in the region´s economy. The works should last 90 days. The last maintenance work on the port´s draft was carried out in 2014.
The auction will be held on September 17 at 10 am on the website www.licitacoes-e.com.br, which will be preceded by the opening of tenders at 9:30 am. More information about the electronic auction can be obtained by e-mail at pregao@codeba.com.br.
According to data published by CODEBA on cargo handling at the Port of Salvador in the first half of 2020, there was a throughput of 2.1 million tonnes. This is a 4.52% increase year-on-year.
