Sep, 10, 2019 Posted by Sylvia SchandertWeek 201938
This Friday (09/06), the National Agency for Water Transport (ANTAQ) concluded and approved the analysis stage of the contributions of public hearings of four terminals located in the Organized Port of Itaqui/MA, which will be auctioned by the Federal Government during the second quarter of 2020.
Under the jurisdiction of the Maranhense Port Administration Company (EMAP), linked to the Ministry of Infrastructure, the areas named IQI 03, IQI 11, IQI 12, and IQI 13 are intended to be used for the movement and storage of liquid bulk focusing on cargoes such as ethanol and oil products, in addition to other complementary facilities. The investment forecast for the four terminals is R$480m.
For the National Secretary of Ports and Water Transport, Diogo Piloni, the launch of the auction is another step forward to serve the liquid bulk supply segment in the region. “The Port of Itaqui has been growing above average in recent years, and the four areas will play a crucial role in fuel distribution to the country,” Piloni explained.
Next steps
Now, the regulatory agency will forward the contributions to the Ministry of Infrastructure, where possible adjustments will be made to the documents, and will send them to be reviewed by the Federal Audit Court (TCU). The announcement is expected to be published in the first quarter of 2020 and the auction to take place in the second quarter of 2020.
