The professionals landed on interspersed flights and, according to sources, they are isolated in a hotel in the city of Itaboraí, in Rio de Janeiro. Workers with suspected coronavirus are employees of CSE, ELFE and LC companies. All performed the test for detection and await the result.

In a note, Petrobras reported that more than 15 covid-19 tests have already been carried out among its employees.

“More than 90% of employees in administrative activities work from home offices. In operational areas, only half of the workforce is working in person to maintain essential activities for society. More than 6 tests were carried out for Petrobras employees and more than 9 tests for professionals from service providers, mainly in the screening of asymptomatic people before the start of operational shifts, whether in offshore units or on land,” the company reported. .
