The state-owned company clarifies that the quarterly update of the natural gas price and annual for product transportation allows for the mitigation of momentary volatilities and relieves, in the final price, the impact of sudden and specific fluctuations in the external market, thus ensuring predictability and transparency for customers.

“The contracts are public and disclosed on the ANP (National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels) website”, says Petrobras in the statement.

Petrobras Warns Consumers That The Final Price Of Fuel Does Not Depend Solely On The Company

Petrobras emphasizes that the final price of natural gas to the consumer is not determined solely by the company’s selling price, but also by the margins of distributors (and, in the case of CNG, of resale stations) and by federal and state taxes.

Moreover, consumer tariffs are approved by state regulatory agencies, according to specific legislation and regulations. It is important to inform that the update announced for 1/11/22 does not refer to the price of LPG (cooking gas), packaged in cylinders or sold in bulk.
