Companhia Docas do Rio de Janeiro (CDRJ) released the results of the response it received after its public invitation to present projects for the Ports of Rio de Janeiro and Itaguaí. In total, 22 companies were interested. In addition to these, other companies showed interest in eventual bidding for the areas.

Six notices were published in the Federal Official Gazette in April and all received expressions of interest from investors. According to the company’s business development manager, Eduardo Miguez, even with the crisis scenario generated by COVID-19, the number of expressions of interest in the projects reinforces the good prospect of economic recovery. “Our ports are essential to provide this investment environment, increasing company revenues, taxes for the government, generating employment and income for society and enabling the operation of the entire foreign trade logistics chain”, he stressed.

For the Port of Itaguaí, the projects refer to the following areas: Solid Bulk Terminal 2 in a greenfield area; Solid Bulk Terminal 3; Liquid Bulk Terminal; Liquid Bulk Transhipment Operation (ship to ship); and support area for port operations. For the Port of Rio de Janeiro, the project is for the preparation and donation of a Technical, Economic, and Environmental Feasibility Study (EVTEA) for a liquid bulk terminal.

At the end of the process, all expressions of interest will be forwarded to the National Secretariat of Ports and Waterway Transport (SNPTA).
