Petrobras Claims That The Defendants Are Union Representatives Who Have Been Trying To Politicize The Hands Of The Judiciary, Causing Both Financial And Image Damage.
Petrobras has opted to take legal action against union representatives who filed lawsuits against the sale of the company’s assets. The state-owned company seeks compensation for material and moral damages and argues that the actions of the unionists are politically motivated. With a focus on pre-salt, the state-owned company accelerates decommissioning in the Campos Basin.
Petrobras and the representatives of the oil workers have not yet reached an agreement regarding the Collective Labor Agreement (CLA) for the category, which has a base date in September.

Billions of barrels on the equatorial margin could lead Amapá to double its oil production in Brazil — the state aims to enter the route of companies in the Campos Basin, attract investments, and boost jobs and businesses in the oil and gas sector.

By the 30th of this month, when the currently effective agreement expires, the parties need to reach an understanding. The Superior Labor Court (TST) is responsible for mediating the negotiations.
The company has taken to court four unionists linked to the Unique Federation of Oil Workers (FUP) and four linked to the National Federation of Oil Workers (FNP). One of those cited in Petrobras’ actions is the coordinator of the North Fluminense Sindipetro (NF), Tezeu Bezerra.
The state-owned company reports losses due to the actions and claims R$ 100,000 for material and moral damages from each of the accused. Sindipetro-NF states that it stands in solidarity with the unionists mentioned in Petrobras’ lawsuit.
In a statement, Petrobras informed that it respects the right to file a lawsuit and make use of constitutional mechanisms to defend rights, but emphasized that, based on these same mechanisms, “does not waive its right to contest, through legal means, abuses committed under the guise of the right of action.”
The company states that it is lawfully questioning practices it considers “reckless,” including the proliferation of lawsuits with the same objective that have been filed in different locations in the country.
Petrobras requests “the application of appropriate sanctions to its authors, regardless of whether they engage in union activities or not.”
The FUP, in turn, classified Petrobras’ measure as an affront to the Constitution and stated that the aim is “to intimidate and obstruct the exercise of one of the fundamental rights of every Brazilian citizen, which is the right to petition.”
