Posidonia presents new multi-purpose ship

Posidonia, a shipping company that specializes in cargo transportation along the Brazilian coast, is presenting its newly built multi-purpose ship Posidonia Bravo. The vessel will operate in special ocean mining operations. It can transport 3 thousand tons, has a sustainable disposal system and dredging pumps with a capacity of 55 thousand m3 per day.

“Posidonia Bravo is a special vessel. In view of the flexibility of the project on which it was conceived, it was easily adjusted for use in the extraction, storage and transportation of marine fertilizers. Proof of this is that she is already employed on a five-year contract ”, said Abrahão Salomão, partner at Posidonia.

In addition to the multi-purpose vessel, the company also has the Santa Maria general cargo vessel, which has undergone extensive classification work to transport umbilical spools (metal reel-shaped structures for storing umbilicals – flexible connections for oil transfer between vessels) via cabotage.

The company’s projects range from supplying and supporting offshore platforms to the transportation of automobiles and special cargo between ports in Brazil and Argentina. It also performs STS (ship to ship) operations in Brazil and abroad. The volume of cargo transported by the company reached around 1 million tons, including iron ore, fertilizers, biofuels and oil as well as oil products.
