New Gas Station Law Promises To Cause Significant Changes At Ipiranga, BR, Shell, And More

A new law is coming into effect at gas stations and promises to change the lives of Brazilian drivers. Giants like Ipiranga, BR, Shell, and more are under scrutiny due to this prohibition aimed at bringing more transparency and safety when refueling. See all the details below.

At the end of 2023, a new law was announced, and it is already creating buzz among drivers and gas station owners. The new gas station law aims to implement a drastic change: the mandatory use of transparent hoses at fuel pumps. And the major players in the sector, such as Ipiranga, BR, Shell, and more, will have to adapt.

New Gas Station Law

The idea behind this new gas station law is quite clear. According to Congressman Jeferson Rodrigues (Republicanos-GO), author of Bill 3325/23, the proposal seeks to allow consumers to clearly see the type and amount of fuel being pumped into their tanks. This aims to prevent fraud and ensure more honest and transparent service.

Measure Is Being Analyzed

And it doesn’t stop there. This measure is being analyzed by the committees on Mines and Energy, Consumer Protection, and Constitution, Justice and Citizenship. In other words, there’s still a way to go before it actually becomes law. But many consumers are already eager to see this new gas station law in action, believing that it will bring more confidence when refueling their vehicles.

Ipiranga, BR, Shell, and other stations will need to prepare for this possible change. Transparency at pumps could be a significant victory for consumers but also represents a logistical and financial challenge for the stations.

While the new gas station law is still under review, the discussion is already heating up. Drivers and consumers hope that if approved, this law will bring more safety and transparency during refueling. Major players like Ipiranga, BR, Shell, and others need to stay alert and prepare for this potential revolution in gas stations.

Primeiro, essa mangueira ainda não existe com aprovação do Inmetro, segundo, uma mangueira transparente não atesta a qualidade muito menos a quantidade vendida, e terceiro e mais importante qualquer gasto extra, será repassado para o consumidor, ou se vai cair aqui na balela da Janja de que as empresas absorverão os custos de tal existência?

Você consegue saber se o volume que está passando nessa mangueira é menor ou igual ao medido na bomba? Eu não. Aquele densimetro que algumas bombas tem já deixa pelo menos uma desconfiança menor e poderia ser obrigatório em todas. Teoricamente você vê o que está sendo colocado no tanque no momento do abastecimento mas nem isso garante a qualidade.

Amigo aquele densímetro só diz que o álcool estando dentro dos parâmetros sugeridos pelo visor ou seja as faixas vermelhas abaixo do liquido estão dentro das especificações da anp em inpm.

New Gas Station Law

Measure Is Being Analyzed

With an 88-meter wingspan, a capacity of 250 tons, six engines, and 32 wheels, the Ukrainian giant became the greatest symbol of extreme air transport and one of the most impressive machines in aviation history.

The United Kingdom removed approximately 1.8 million cubic meters of sand from the seabed and is depositing it all on 6 kilometers of beaches in Norfolk, in a mega-operation to curb erosion, protect coastal villages, and shield a vital gas terminal against the encroaching Atlantic.

Magalu has a clearance sale on JBL Boombox 4 with 210W of power, 34-hour battery, and 3-way system.

China has begun the second phase of energy assistance to Cuba with a 120 MW solar generation plan, and the first result is a photovoltaic park with batteries that regulates voltage, controls frequency, and provides local autonomy to an island suffocated by chronic blackouts.

Generation Z works, studies, and strives, but cannot afford to buy their own home because the real estate market has risen faster than salaries, and the banking system has tightened credit for those who lack stability or surplus income.
