Surplus locked in inventory
Project changes, engineering revisions, upgrades and decommissioning leave valuable parts and equipment unused for years, tying up capital and increasing storage costs.

The problem
01
Project changes, engineering revisions, upgrades and decommissioning leave valuable parts and equipment unused for years, tying up capital and increasing storage costs.
02
Routine MRO buyers often overpay through primary OEM channels and wait through long lead times when the same item may be available faster and for less elsewhere.
03
Equipment under Brazil's Repetro customs regime must be resolved at concession end or decommissioning, yet re-exporting is costly and value is easily lost.
Spare8 was built to solve all three.
What you can do on Spare8
Built for Oil & Gas
40 categories, 216 subcategories and 827 equipment types structured for how the industry searches.
Buyers can find the exact item rather than a rough match.
Filter by customs status, regime, Repetro exit path, location, certificates and last inspection date.
Listing data rooms hold datasheets, certificates, inspection and calibration reports.
Confidential pricing and masked messaging protect commercial positions.
Seller onboarding is checked. Item condition, specifications and fiscal status remain seller-declared and document-backed; Spare8 does not verify or certify them today.
The Repetro opportunity
Brazil's Repetro-Sped regime suspends federal import taxes on equipment used in Oil & Gas exploration and production. When a concession ends or a platform is decommissioned, that equipment must exit the regime, which is often where value is destroyed.
Spare8 helps line up demand before nationalisation and sale. Listings capture customs status, current beneficiary, authorised use, exit path and supporting documents so buyers can assess viability quickly.
Spare8 does not guarantee a transfer. Information is seller-declared and document-backed; Repetro Exit Advisory supports tax assessment, nationalisation structuring and buyer identification.
