Liquiport Boosts Efficiency and Sustainability with AI and Automation in the 2024 and 2025 Expansion at the terminals in Espírito Santo and Pernambuco.
Liquiport invests in artificial intelligence and automation to transform its terminals in ES and PE, boosting efficiency and sustainability.
LiquiPort's investments in modernizing and expanding its port terminals, with an emphasis on the intensive use of artificial intelligence (AI) and automation, are at the heart of its strategy for 2024 and 2025. These initiatives not only increase cargo handling capacity, but also bring about a technological transformation that will put the company ahead in terms of operational efficiency and sustainability in the Brazilian port sector.
Expansion of Storage Capacity and Technological Integration
With the expansion of its liquid bulk storage capacity in 2024 in Espírito Santo and an additional one in 2025, LiquiPort is focused on improving and increasing its infrastructure to support greater volumes of cargo. Investments in this area will allow the company not only to meet growing demand, but also to integrate intelligent inventory control and monitoring systems, optimizing the use of space and maximizing logistical efficiency.
New Solid Bulk Terminal in Pernambuco
The construction of the new solid bulk terminal in the Port of Recife, with a capacity of 31,000 tons in vertical metal silos and 15,000 tons in a horizontal warehouse, reinforces LiquiPort's presence in the vegetable solid bulk market. This terminal will be designed from the outset with the implementation of automation and AI technologies, allowing precise control of each stage of the process, from receiving to shipping, which will significantly reduce operating time and costs.
Automation and Artificial Intelligence: The Heart of Operational Efficiency
The integration of artificial intelligence throughout the port operations chain is one of LiquiPort's main bets for increasing efficiency.With complete automation systems for receiving ships, storing and dispatching products, the use of AI will enable efficient and seamless coordination, anticipating failures, optimizing processes and reducing operational disruptions.
In addition, AI will be instrumental in managing truck scheduling, automated check-listing, real-time monitoring of operations and rapid release of cargo. These improvements in logistics will enable a more agile and predictable flow of operations, providing greater control and visibility of all stages, which will result in faster response times and better use of existing infrastructure.
AI-driven sustainability and energy efficiency
LiquiPort also places sustainability as a priority, using artificial intelligence to monitor and manage its energy efficiency and carbon emissions reduction targets.
With advanced systems, the company will be able to track energy use in real time, identify waste and implement optimization practices that reduce environmental impact. Intelligent waste management and the use of renewable energies are key elements in aligning terminals with growing global sustainability requirements.
Resilient Infrastructure and Cyber Security
With the increasing digitalization of operations, LiquiPort's terminals will have resilient infrastructure, designed to withstand unexpected interruptions and resist adverse weather conditions.
In parallel, cyber security will become a priority, with AI systems that will help identify and mitigate cyber threats, protecting operational data and ensuring business continuity.
Economic Impact and Competitiveness
These investments will not only expand LiquiPort's capacity to handle growing volumes of cargo, they will also transform the way the company operates. By adopting AI, automation and sustainable practices, LiquiPort is positioning itself as a benchmark in the port sector, offering more efficient, safer and environmentally responsible solutions. These innovations will enable LiquiPort to attract new business and contribute significantly to regional and national economic development, consolidating its position in the port terminal sector.
