In June, Vast Infraestrutura achieved the milestone of 100 oil transshipment operations performed this year at its terminal (T-Oil).
The 100th operation of 2024 was completed on 06/23 and handled around 1 million barrels of oil.
This milestone has been reached by the company earlier and earlier over the years, which shows the dedication and professionalism of the company’s teams, as well as the market’s confidence in Vast’s efficient services.
This month, Vast Infraestrutura successfully and efficiently performed the first oil transshipment operation of BW Energy at T-Oil, in Porto do Açu. The operation is part of the one-year commercial agreement signed between the companies in the beginning of the month. Check out the video of the operation below:
Vast Infraestrutura has just launched a Executive Summary of its 2023 Sustainability Report.
In it, you can access a summerized version of the company’s report, with last year’s results and achievements.
The objective of this publication is to simplify the access to report information and reinforce Vast’s commitment to transparency for a sustainable future.
Porto do Açu, where Vast Infraestrutura’s oil terminal is located, was included by the World Health Organization (WHO) in the list of ports authorized to issue health certificates to vessels.
From now on, the port will receive on-site service from the Brazilian National Health Surveillance Agency (Anvisa), reducing logistic and operational costs for clients of the several companies present in the complex, including those of Vast.
The addition of Anvisa’s services to Porto do Açu is in line with the One Stop Shop concept, promoting yet another convenience to be offered in the complex. Among the activities that will be carried out by Anvisa is the issuance of the Free Practice Certificate, which permits the embarkation and disembarkation of goods and crew.
By avoiding longer journeys, Anvisa’s work at the port will also reduce greenhouse gas emissions, which, for Vast and its clients, means another competitive advantage for increasingly safe, reliable and less carbon-intensive operations.
Vast Infraestrutura signed a commercial agreement with BW Energy, global company of the O&G market.
The agreement establishes one year of transshipment operations at T-Oil, in Porto do Açu, making Vast an important logistic partner for BW’s oil exports in Brazil.
The new partnership reflects Vast’s efficiency and operational excelence, as well as its focus on safety and care for the environment.
The article brought an interview with Victor Snabaitis Bomfim, the company’s CEO, and delved into some of the themes he addressed in the panel he took part in at the Argus Rio Crude Conference.
Vast Infraestrutura has just published its 2023 Sustainability Report.
The issue brings with transparency the environmental, social and economic performance of the company, as well as information on governance, compliance and relationship with stakeholders.
Throughout last year, besides expanding its performance and beating operational records, Vast also demonstrated expressive improvement in safety, environmental impact, response to emergencies and decarbonization indicators.
On May 27, Vast Infraestrutura’s Sustainability Director, Adriano Truffi Lima, participated in the 2nd edition of the ESG Energy and Business, in Rio de Janeiro.
The event, held by the Brazilian Institute of Oil & Gas (IBP), gathered important players of the energy ecosystem for insights, connections and exchanges through debates on the main subjects regarding the ESG agenda.
At the occasion, Adriano integrated the “The impact of the energy transition on the competitiveness of the ‘Hard to abate’ industry” panel, which discussed strategies for the energy transition in the sector.
Vast Infraestrutura took another important step in its Decarbonization Journey and installed 44 photovoltaic panels in the administrative building of its oil terminal, the T-Oil.
The project, which originated from the company’s Sustainability Policy and Decarbonization Strategy, was conducted by the Sustainability and Engineering teams and has the objective of reducing the consume of electric power at T-Oil by generating around 3.036 kWh per month.
The 44-plate pack has 24,2kWp of power and works by transforming solar radiation into electric power using the photovoltaic cells exposed to the sunlight. The estimative is that the system also reduces the monthly CO2 emissions in 1.619 Kg.
The system is connected to Vast’s power substation, allowing the direct consumption of all the energy generated, and it is monitored by an app from which it is possible to extract KPIs and accompany the performance os the panels.
The forecast is to expand the project by the end of the year, with the installation of another 54 solar plates in the terminal.
