Procon’s Receipt In Navegantes Ensures Stability In Average Fuel Prices In Santa Catarina
In The Last Week, A Survey Conducted By Procon In Navegantes, Santa Catarina, Indicated That There Was A Slight Variation In Fuel Prices, Allowing Stability Between December And January In The State.
According To The Report, The Average Price Remained Stable For Regular And Additive Gasoline And For Diesel S10, Compared To The Same Period Of The Previous Month. In Practice, This Represents A Clear Sign Of Stability, Especially Due To Uncertainties In The Fuel Sector In Brazil.
However, The Report Indicated A Significant Variation For Ethanol, With An Increase Of 12%. The Bulletin Also Reported That Prices Practiced In Navegantes Are Below The State Average, Except For Diesel S-10 And Ethanol, Which Remained Above The Average Prices.
In Total, 14 Fuel Points Were Checked In The Municipality. In December, An Inspection Of The Quality And Quantity Of Fuel Was Also Conducted At Four Other Stations. The Inspection Occurred Under The Administrative Processes Of The Inspection Sector Of Procon In Navegantes/SC, In Partnership With The National Agency of Petroleum – ANP.
Such Inspections By Procon Occur Due To Suggestions From The Population Regarding The Average Fuel Prices. Thus, The Entity Carries Out Monthly Actions On The Quality And Quantity Of Fuels Consumed In The Municipality.
In The Last Week, Data From Sinpeb (Union of Retail Trade in Oil Derivatives of Blumenau) Indicated That Even With The Freezing Of Fuel Prices, Several Cities In Santa Catarina Continued To Raise Fuel Prices.
Thus, It Is Expected That The New Measures From The Federal Government — Such As The Exemption From PIS/PASEP — Along With Investments In The Fuel Sector Will Bring A New Price Perspective For The State. However, The Stations Still Continue To Charge A Price Above The Frozen One, Even With Constant Notifications From Procon.
