Brent oil has an accumulated increase of at least 50,21% in one year, and the civil construction sector is also among those affected
Brent oil is at its cumulative high of at least 50,21% over the last 52 weeks. One of the reasons for the accumulated rise to occur is the crisis between Russia and Ukraine, which erupted at the end of February because the Ukrainian president, according to Putin, was not obeying the rule set out in the agreement between the two countries about the non-participation of military groups such as NATO. Civil construction, specifically in the area of pipes, is hampered by high inflation.
Bearing this in mind, civil construction will become more expensive due to pipe prices, which tend to increase in the year 2022. This could, according to specialists from martec – a company located in São Paulo that works with services aimed at unclogging -, cause high prices in civil construction.
More expensive Brent oil harms several sectors and civil construction is one of the most inflated areas in 2021
According to IBGE data, civil construction was one of the sectors that had the most increase and suffered from the inflation of 2021, ending with an increase of 10,6%. The value of a square meter is more than R$ 1,6 and reaches around R$ 2,5 in some cities, as in the case of Balneário Camboriu, in Santa Catarina, which is among the three most expensive cities in the country. TO Getúlio Vargas Foundation (FGV) states that the rise in the sector in April was 0,81%.

FASHION – FREE MARKET
The leak hunt e plunger tend to be more expensive with the civil construction variation and construction material companies already pass on prices to the consumer.
Brent oil and its commodity values profoundly impact the prices of several other sectors, as in the markets, due to the more expensive freight. Truck drivers complain about variations in diesel, which make fuel more expensive than gasoline. Chorão, leader of the area, has already spoken about the possibility of a strike. Carriers and businessmen who work with the logistics sector also address the possibility of price variations because those charged are out of date with the market. The last increase carried out by Petrobras took place on the 17th of this month.
The instability in 'commodities' causes coal to have a new high, causing an increase in accumulated prices of 103% in just one year, causing not only the crisis in civil construction but also in the energy sector, where flags tend to increase, according to to Aneel, 65% this year.
Pipelines and civil construction are the focus of debates with rising Brent prices
Most pipes are plastic based on Brent petroleum. As the market has the possibility of accompanying prices from abroad, as well as Petrobras, values are passed on to consumers.
There are some ways to increase inventories of barrels of oil while controlling demand, and this will cause prices to fall again in the market. One of the methods used for this is the United States, according to Biden, resume negotiating Brent with Venezuela, as well as the European Union.
In this way, Venezuelans could pay their external debts through oil and gas in the 'offshore' sector, that is, off the coast. The decision to go back to buying the product from Venezuela was rethought after the United States blocked Russians from the global market due to the invasions in Ukraine.
