Shelter was founded in 2007 by six Navy Captains with extensive experience in maritime affairs. The company started its activities in the market of courses and training for the oil and gas offshore sector. The courses offered by Shelter are approved by the Brazilian Navy and the company is registered in the Petrobras list of suppliers.
The opening of a subsidiary in Santos, during 2008, brought another Retired Navy Captain to the company’s management and the courses started being offered also in São Paulo.
Since its creation, Shelter has expanded its scope of activities through providing consultancy on maritime issues related to regularization and commissioning of ships as well as fixed and mobile platforms. With the success obtained in the meantime, Shelter considerably increased its gross sales and recorded the emission of more than 5,000 courses completion certificates.
Attentive to the market tendencies, Shelter has consolidated international partnerships to enable a national option to:
- The use of simulation in construction projects of new maritime and inland waterway terminals, and
- Vessel Traffic Services (VTS) Training – a worldwide system used to control vessel traffic in ports.
At the moment the company is preparing to step into a training sector still considered critical for the country, seeking to become an option for excellence in preparing a skilled workforce for the oil & gas segment, complementing Brazilian government programs.
