Vast Infraestrutura has announced a new contract to provide oil transshipment operations, using the ship-to-ship model, with CNOOC International. The agreement is valid for three years and will be carried out at T-OIL, Porto do Açu. The location is under the management of the infrastructure company, which aims to transform it into a hub for the storage and handling of liquids.
This is the second oil transshipment agreement between Vast and China National Offshore Oil Corporation since 2022. CNOOC holds assets in Búzios and Mero fields.
“The ship-to-ship operations are performed for CNOOC´s crude cargoes from Suezmax shuttle tankers that loaded off FPSOs to top off VLCCs for their exports to the Far East”, details Daniel Buckley, chartering manager at WSB.
