Vast’s Liquid Terminal at Açu showcased as key to maritime decarbonization
TLA took center stage at Oceans of Opportunity, an event organized by Prumo that brought together global leaders and experts to discuss zero-emission fuels and the future of maritime decarbonization.
During the event, Vast Infraestrutura’s terminal was presented as a key driver of maritime sector decarbonization at both the Port of Açu and in Brazil. Its strategic role will be crucial for handling the future fuels expected from the Port’s hydrogen hub project. The TLA’s infrastructure will ensure competitive logistics for distributing products such as SAF, green ammonia, and e-methanol.
The TLA’s benefits extend beyond the Açu industrial complex. With the new terminal, Vast aims to meet Brazil’s growing demand for infrastructure capable of handling a wide variety of liquid products. The terminal is licensed for a total storage capacity of 108,000 m³, covering petroleum derivatives, chemicals, and biofuels.
The first phase of the terminal’s tank farm is already under construction and will include 11 tanks with a total capacity of 38,600 m³. Operations at the TLA are expected to begin in the second half of 2026.
