The Urgent Project needs to be completed by the completion of the construction of a steel mill factory in CIPP scheduled in the year 2008. MAIN REPORT 9 - 58 CHAPTER 9 PECEM INDUSTRIAL AND PORT COMPLEX DEVELOPMENT PLAN FINAL REPORT IN THE FEDERATIVE REPUBLIC OF BRAZIL VOLUME III 9.8.6 Urgent Project (1) Influence of CSC operations on Pier No1 Usage at Pecem Port The Urgent Project of the Short-Term Plan needs to be completed by the commencement of the operations of Ceara Steel Company (hereinafter referred as CSC) at CIPP that is said to be scheduled in 2009. The construction works of its factory is scheduled in December of 2005. After the start of CSC’s operations, Berth No.1 of Pier No.1 will be solely dedicated to receive iron-ore-pellets carriers due to the installation of trestles for belt conveyors beneath the existing ship unloader installed along the berth. Berth No.2 of Pier 1 is planned to be dedicated to receive bulk carriers to transport steel products comprising mainly exported thick slabs to be manufactured by CSC at CIPP and partly imported steel rolls, etc. which will be destined to or originate from the industrial areas in the hinterland of Pecem Port. The amount of thick slabs from CIPP is expected to be 1.5 million tons when CSC is in full operation. By adding other steel products estimated over 200,000 tons, a gigantic amount of steel products (totalling in around 1.7 million tons) will saturate Berth No1; in other words, an additional berth for handling steel products is needed. On the other hand, currently Berths No.1 and No.2 of Pier 1 are mainly used to receive container ships and, to a lesser degree, vessels for steel products. The number of container ships calling at the Port is getting larger and larger year by year showing an increase of 25% in container throughput and around 50% in the number of calling ships in 2005 from the preceding year. In addition, in June of 2005, cabotage container services covering the northern and southern Brazilian coast started. The Port has an auspice of berth congestion from 2005 as two vessels often berth simultaneously and off-shore waiting has already occurred. As the start of the steel mill operations at CIPP that will commence by 2009 (45 months in total) new berths for both container ships enabling them to shift from Pier 1 and ships for steel products in addition to Berth No.2 of Pier 1 are equired. (2) Construction of Pier 3 Taking account of the completion of the construction works of CSC’s factory including the installation of belt conveyors on Pier No.1 that is said to be by the end of 2007 (24 months), the construction of Pier 3 is considered to be an only option to meet the requirement mentioned in Paragraph (1). (3) Usage Plan of Pier 3 1) Remain Project of Short-Term Plan (2008 – 2011) Pier 3 is planned to be used as a berth for handling containers in the Remain Project of Short-Term Plan from 2008 to 2009. From 2009 to 2011, the pier is planned to be used for steel products as well as for containers. 2) Second Phase Project (2012 - 2021) Pier 3 is planned to be used for handling solely for handling general cargoes including steel products, bagged cement, fresh fruits etc. Handling containers in the First Phase Plan period has been planned to be shifted to the full-scale container terminal proposed in the Remain Project period of Short-Term Plan. MAIN REPORT 9 - 59 CHAPTER 9 PECEM INDUSTRIAL AND PORT COMPLEX DEVELOPMENT PLAN FINAL REPORT IN THE FEDERATIVE REPUBLIC OF BRAZIL VOLUME III 3) After Long-Term Plan (after 2022) Pier 3 is planned to be used solely for handling general cargoes without any conversion in terms of berth use from the Remain Project of the Short-Term Plan. (4) Facility Layout Plan of Pier 3 during the First Phase As previously mentioned Pier 3 is planned to be used for container-handling during the first phase period. The dimensions of the pier which will be used for general-cargo handling are as follows: Apron for forklift usage: 15m Shed width: 50m Shed truck side: 15m Port road: 20m Total: 100m The basin slip width between Piers 2 and 3 is computed as 345m, which narrowly clears the required width of the LOA of potentially coming ships (see Table 9.2.1 in Section 9.2). There is a probability of receiving post-Panamax-typed container ships over 340m, and taking account of the berthing of petroleum tankers laden with typical dangerous cargo, it is advisable not to further narrow the basin slip width; in other words the pier should not be extended beyond 100m. By using the width of 100m as a given condition, a sample facility layout is shown in Figure 9.8.1 assuming the usage of container gantry cranes and RTGs. According to the balance of the required total container storage capacity and the existing storage capacity on land yard within the Port as shown in Table 9.8.1, container storage on the Pier 3 is not necessarily required until 2012, and after 2012, the shortage can be balanced by the preparation of the full-scale container terminal, not by Pier 3. Available container storage capacity on Pier 3 by the adoption of RTG system has been estimated as 1,173 TEUs Figure 9.8.1 Facility Layout Plan of Pier 3 for Container-handling MAIN REPORT 9 - 60 CHAPTER 9 PECEM INDUSTRIAL AND PORT COMPLEX DEVELOPMENT PLAN FINAL REPORT IN THE FEDERATIVE REPUBLIC OF BRAZIL VOLUME III Table 9.8.1 Annual Throughputs and Facilities Requirement at Pecem Port through the Years 2012 and 202 Thick Slabs Steel Prod.

  • The Potential Impacts of the Port of Salvador Improvements on the Brazilian Cotton Industry
    International Journal of Food and Agricultural Economics ISSN 2147-8988 Vol. 3 No. 1, (2015), pp. 45-61 THE POTENTIAL IMPACTS OF THE PORT OF SALVADOR IMPROVEMENTS ON THE BRAZILIAN COTTON INDUSTRY Rafael Costa Texas A&M University, Department of Agricultural Economics, College Station, Texas, USA, Email: [email protected] Parr Rosson Texas A&M University, Department of Agricultural Economics, College Station, Texas, USA. Ecio de Farias Costa Universidade Federal de Pernambuco, Departamento de Economia, Recife, Pernambuco, Brasil. Abstract A spatial price equilibrium model of the international cotton sector was used to analyze the impacts of the Port of Salvador improvements on the Brazilian cotton industry and world cotton trade. The port of Salvador is undergoing relevant improvements in its facilities and physical structure. As a result of these improvements, the port of Salvador is expected to become more competitive and attract ocean shipping companies which are willing to export products directly to Asian importing markets. Scenarios with different reduction in export cost for the port of Salvador were examined. For all scenarios, the new direct ocean shipping lines were found to be important for the cotton exporters in Brazil, especially for the producers in the state of Bahia. In addition, results suggested that the state of Bahia would have the potential of becoming the largest cotton exporting state in Brazil. Keywords: Cotton, international trade, Brazil, spatial equilibrium model, transportation 1. Introduction and Background In the 18th century, cotton was introduced in Brazil in the Northeastern region of the country. As the Southeastern region of the country started to industrialize in late 1800’s, the textile industry followed and eventually cotton cultivation was solidified in the states of São Paulo and Paraná.

Rua São Francisco Xavier 524, Maracanã, 20550-013 Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro, Brasil. ABSTRACT. Data on Sotalia guianensis Van Bénéden, 1864 occurrence on the beaches of Pernambuco (Northeast- ern Brazil) is restricted to information on stranding and on printed material from local newspapers; actual observations of such animals have not been published. This study intends to determine the use of habitat, behavioral activities and assess the relationships between environmental factors and the recorded behavior. Observations were conducted on open sea coastal areas, on the beaches of Olinda and Piedade, as well as in sheltered areas, in the ports of Recife and Suape. Monitoring was carried out every month in each area, during two consecutive days, from September 2004 to August 2005. Results corroborate that this species prefers to occupy more protected environments, the port of Recife being the main concentration area for such species. Piedade is just an exploratory area, possibly due to shark occurrence. Olinda is only occasionally used. Concen- tration areas seem to be used for feeding, and incidence of caudal exhibition suggests that most of the estuarine dolphin prey items are demersal.

  • Mesozooplankton of an Impacted Bay in North Eastern Brazil
    485 Vol.47, n. 3 : pp. 485-493, July 2004 ISSN 1516-8913 Printed in Brazil BRAZILIAN ARCHIVES OF BIOLOGY AND TECHNOLOGY AN INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL Mesozooplankton of an Impacted Bay in North Eastern Brazil Andréa Pinto Silva, Sigrid Neumann-Leitão∗, Ralf Schwamborn, Lúcia Maria de Oliveira Gusmão and Tâmara de Almeida e Silva Departamento de Oceanografia; Universidade Federal de Pernambuco; Av. Arquitetura s/n; Cidade Universitária; 50730-540; [email protected]; Recife - PE - Brazil ABSTRACT Mesozooplankton abundance and distribution at Suape Bay, Pernambuco, was studied to assess the impacts caused by the construction of an internal port to increase the capacity of the Suape Port Complex. Zooplankton sampling was done at 3 stations during the dry (November-December/1997) and rainy (April-May/1998) seasons. A plankton net with 300 µm mesh size was used. Wet weight plankton biomass ranged from 44 mg.m-3 to 3,638 mg.m-3. Forty- five macrozooplankton taxa were registered. The most abundant was Copepoda. Among copepods, Acartia lilljeborgi, Parvocalanus crassirostris, Oithona hebes, Corycaeus (C.) speciosus and Temora turbinata were most frequent. Minimum abundance was 9 ind.m-3 and maximum was 2,532 ind.m-3. Average species diversity was 2.55 bits.ind-1. As a whole, Suape Bay has been under severe environmental stress and it seemed reasonable to assume that the recent modifications of the basin have resulted in changes in species composition and trophic structure, with an increase in marine influence. Key words: Mesozooplankton, Copepoda, human impacts, Suape Port Complex INTRODUCTION After the port’s implementation, ecological studies carried out from 1986 to 1994 by the Departament On the coast of Pernambuco State, Brazil, an of Oceanography of the Federal University of industrial port complex was created in 1979/1980 Pernambuco focussed on the estuary of the Ipojuca as an attempt to solve the collapse of the State’s River, the main freshwater source in the area, in economy.

  • Ice in the Tropics: the Export of ‘Crystal Blocks of Yankee Coldness’ to India and Brazil
    Ice in the Tropics: the Export of ‘Crystal Blocks of Yankee Coldness’ to India and Brazil Marc W. Herold * Abstract. The Boston natural ice trade thrived during 1830-70 based upon Frederic Tudor’s idea of combining two useless products – natural winter ice in New England ponds and sawdust from Maine’s lumber mills. Tudor ice was exported extensively to the tropics from the West Indies to Brazil and the East Indies as well as to southern ports of the United States. In tropical ice ports, imported natural ice was a luxury product, e.g., serving to chill claret wines (Calcutta), champagne (Havana and Manaus), and mint juleps (New Orleans and Savannah) and used in luxury hotels or at banquets. In the temperate United States, natural ice was employed to preserve foods (cold storage) and to cool water (Americans’ peculiar love of ice water). In both temperate and tropical regions natural ice found some use for medicinal purposes (to calm fevers). With the invention of a new technology to manufacture artificial ice as part of the Industrial Revolution, the natural ice export trade dwindled as import substituting industrialization proceeded in the tropics. By the turn of the twentieth century, ice factories had been established in half a dozen Brazilian port cities. All that remained of the once extensive global trade in natural ice was a sailing ship which docked in Rio Janeiro at Christmas time laden with ice and apples from New England. Key words : natural ice export, nineteenth century globalization, artificial ice industry, luxury consumption, commodity chain. * MARC W.
