New fertilizer terminal for Brazil’s Port of Belém

The Port of Bele´m in Brazil is planning a $50.2 million project to build a new fertilizer terminal. This is being developed by the state dock company, CDP, which also operates grain handling facilities at the port of Santare´m. A detailed analysis of the project is due to be given to the National waterways regulator, Antaq, by the end of the year and the terminal should be operational by 2014. Capacity should be in the order of 3,000,000 tonnes per annum. Funding will come from Brazil’s Accelerated Growth Programme (PAC).
