Heavily Criticized Due to the Exorbitant Fuel Prices in Brazil, Petrobras Threw in the Towel and Shows That the Government Is the Main Culprit of the Price Increase

A Petrobras, tired of being criticized and pointed out as the main culprit for the rise in fuel prices, decided to go to her official website and show in numbers that the taxes on the primary price of oil are the main factor driving up gasoline and diesel prices. Remember that tomorrow (20), there will be another price adjustment, which will naturally trigger another wave of protests throughout the country.

After the adjustment that will happen tomorrow, gasoline will cost an average of R$1.51 per liter and diesel is expected to cost R$1.73, remembering that these are the values without taxes and sold directly from the refinery. It’s worth noting that these values are based on the national average, free from taxes, and can vary according to the locality where they are sold. Remember that these adjustments may or may not directly affect the consumer.

According to the National Agency of Petroleum (ANP), the average final price of gasoline at gas stations in Brazil in 2016 was R$3.69, in 2018 it went up to R$4.23 per liter, while during this period, Petrobras increased prices by only 9 cents. In contrast, diesel was R$3.05 in 2016 and rose to R$3.40 in 2018, while it increased by just 12 cents in its prices, amounts that vary from 1/6 to 1/3 of the total in adjustments.

The Cooking Gas

The value of GLP (cooking gas) at updated prices is R$23.16 per cylinder weighing 13 kg. Remember that this price is an average commercial price directly with distributors and free from taxes and other charges.

Gasoline and Diesel Prices in Brazil
These are just facts and serve as a comparison between the real price of fuels and how much you pay at the final price; there are many taxes that hinder the economic development of the country and the establishment of new companies. Remember that exploring in deep and ultra-deep waters is expensive and requires a lot of technology. The price of oil is starting to rise more, but it is still far from ideal; until then, the state-owned company asks for patience and for charges to be directed to the real culprits.
