Ecovix, owner of the Rio Grande shipyard and the steel company Gerdau were the winners of the tender for the decommissioning of the P-32 platform, a production system unit that was being used by Petrobras in the Campos Basin, Rio de Janeiro state.
The dismantling should start between 90 and 120 days and last around one year, counting from last 7th of July. Ecovix will receive the platform at the Rio Grande shipyard. Gerdau, in turn, will use the metal scrap generated as raw material for steel production.
