The company is focused on energy and logistics and could participate in the sale of Petrobras refineries depending on the model of the operation details, completes Ometto. The company already has refining assets in Argentina, and having a stake here could be a way to stay on track.
Regarding ethanol, the new sugarcane harvest in Brazil only starts in April next year. For mills to continue focusing on ethanol production, the price of sugar has to increase significantly. Raizen overlooks expanding cane processing capacity in the country and the joint venture needs to focus on improving capacity utilization.
Raizen has the capacity to process 70 to 72 million tons of sugarcane per cycle and is currently processing between 60 and 62 million tons, that is, 10 million less – completes the executive.
This partnership will be good for Petrobras and the government, and we hope it will also be positive for the market.
