From the city of Rio de Janeiro, at the 19th SLOM 2023 Conference, Gregorio Rojas from Inspenet interviews Flavio Viana, Maritime Operations Manager at Transpetro . Viana mentions his role, which focuses on the management of both land and maritime operations. Among the maritime operations, he mentions “chip to chip” operations (ship to ship), “chip to base” and Offshore operations with Monobuoys. These operations include the unloading and loading of fuel vessels, distribution to terminals and distributors, as well as the export of fuel products.
Viana is asked where these chip-to-chip and chip-to-base operations are currently taking place. He mentions several locations, including public ports in Itaqui (Maranhão) and Suape (Pernambuco), as well as private Petrobras terminals in Angra do Geise and São Sebastião. He also mentions the merged chip-to-chip operation in Bahia and the northern region of Brazil.
The importance of these operations in the northern and northeastern regions of Brazil is highlighted in order to supply markets and complement local production with imported products. These operations help reduce costs and improve port efficiency.
Rojas raises the question about the potential for oil production in the equatorial margin and whether these “chip to chip” and “chip to base” operations can be solutions for the production flow. Viana confirms that these operations are key logistical solutions for oil production in the equatorial margin and that they are studying their application both in Brazil and in other countries with production in the same area.
