Brasco, a Wilson Sons Group company, entered into a partnership with APM Terminals Pecém to set up a temporary logistics base at the Pecém Industrial and Port Complex. It will be the first offshore port support operation carried out in the port of Ceará.

Scheduled to start in the first half of 2020, the logistics base will support the drilling of a well in block CE-M-717, located in the Ceará Basin and operated by Premier Oil, a British oil company. Among the services that will be provided are receiving and storing cargo, water supply and other consumables for the offshore platform, in addition to waste management and tank cleaning.

The Pecém Industrial and Port Complex is located between the municipalities of São Gonçalo do Amarante and Caucaia, 60 kilometers from Fortaleza. Last year, the port terminal handled 18,100,767 tons of cargo. For the first quarter of 2020, the inauguration of a new mooring berth is expected, which should serve the operation in block CE-M-717.
