Petrobras informed today, Thursday (15), that it will reduce by R$ 0.13 the value per liter of gasoline sold to fuel distributors. With this 4.66% reduction, the price per liter will be R$ 2.66 as of tomorrow, Friday (16).
Considering that gasoline sold at filling stations contains 27% anhydrous ethanol, the part of the price charged by Petrobras will be R$ 1.94 per liter.
According to Petrobras, if the other intermediaries in the fuel chain (distributors and service stations) maintain their values, the average price for the final consumer could reach R$ 5.33 per liter, based on the latest survey carried out by the National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP).
The company points out in a statement that the amount actually charged at the gas station to the final consumer is also affected by other factors, such as taxes, blend of biofuels and profit margins of distributors and resellers.
According to the statement, the main objectives of Petrobras’ price reduction are to maintain competitiveness in relation to the main supply alternatives for its customers and to guarantee the necessary market share to optimize refining assets in balance with the national and international markets.
