OEC and Tenenge works advance in Brazil

Health PPP, UTE Santa Cruz and Montes Claros Duct works are close to completion. Other works have surpassed the 70% physical advance mark.

Terminal Gás Sul
Started in October 2021, the pile driving works for the FSRU (Floating Storage Regasification Unit) anchoring terminal, in Babitonga Bay, were concluded ahead of schedule, as a result of the interaction between Consortium’s teams that concluded this important stage without any accidents with leave and within the international quality specifications.
Since the beginning of the work, 85 piles ranging from 48 to 57 meters each have been driven, totaling 4.6 km of pipes laid and a total load of 1,470 tons of material.

Project Everest
Scheduled for conclusion in August 2022, the Everest project has completed 71.6% of its total execution. When completed, the built-up area of the enterprise will be 106 thousand square meters and, besides the production of medicines, the contracting company will implement a research center for the development of new products at the site.

Saúde BH PPP
The Public-Private Partnership (PPP) between the city of Belo Horizonte, the concessionaire Saúde BH, and the construction company OEC has reached the 92.6% physical progress mark, with 32 health centers concluded. The construction works arew expected to be completed in September 2022 with the conclusion of 40 health centers stipulated in the contract.

Ilha dos Pombos
With delivery also scheduled to September 2022, the Ilha dos Pombos Hydroelectric Power Plant upgrade work is 80% complete. Currently 290 integrants are working on the civil works of concreting and reinforcement, on the assembly of floodgates, and on the installation of control and automation systems.

UTE Santa Cruz
With a total of 826 employees, UTE Santa Cruz reached a physical advance of 96.9% in February this year. When the work is finished, the closing of the so-called ‘combined cycle’ at the plant should guarantee a final output of at least 507 megawatts net.

New Montes Claros Duct
In the last few months the Montes Claros Duct completed the assembly of more than 92 km of pipeline of São Francisco River to the Pacuí WTP. The project has a total of 614 employees and currently presents a physical progress of 94%. The entire infrastructure part of the system has been completed and is under pre-operational testing phase, ready for the 90 days of assisted operation.

BRT Transbrasil
Recently, the Transbrasil Consortium installed four 28-meter-long, 60-ton beams, each, for a viaduct in the distirct of Barros Filho, to widen Avenida Brasil. The exclusive BRT Transbrasil corridor, one of the largest in the world, currently generates more than 5 thousand direct and indirect jobs. When completed, the 27-km project will allow the displacement of about 820 thousand passengers per day, besides connecting to Supervia urban trains and the Transolímpica and Transcarioca BRT corridors.

Petrochemicals Project
Welding services within the scope of Industrial Maintenance are of crucial importance, since they are fundamental to guaranteeing the project’s deadline. They are usually performed in hard-to-access places, on materials that have been worn down by time, requiring a high level of experience and skill from the welders.

During the maintenance shutdown of boiler 46GV02, carried out in recent weeks at the Triunfo Base (RS), 22 professionals from Tenenge’s welding team performed 155 welds in superheater, economizer and external piping, with no accidents, within the required deadlines and with 100% approval in the radiography tests carried out.
