In February 2024, Brent oil fell 3.6%, impacting existing contracts and transport costs.

Petrobras announced that starting this Thursday (1st), there will be an average decrease of 2% in the selling prices of natural gas, according to the contracts established by the company with the distributors. This reduction was communicated through an official statement from the company.

Furthermore, in January 2024, several new agreements from Petrobras’ latest product portfolio took effect, and from the competitive processes of the distributors, Petrobras emphasized.

The portfolio provided the opportunity for contract celebrations with different terms (5 years, 7 years, 9 years, and 11 years) and selection by the distributors regarding the inclusion of outbound transportation in the contracts, the company noted.

Reduction in Natural Gas Prices

Petrobras clients with agreed contracts in 2023 noticed an accumulated reduction of 22.2% in the price of natural gas throughout the year, Petrobras stated.

The final price of natural gas to the consumer is not determined solely by the selling price of the molecule by the company, but also by the transportation cost to the distributor, by each distributor’s supply portfolio, as well as their margins and federal and state taxes.

While in Brazil a 10-story building takes 2 years to complete, in China a company stacks pre-fabricated modules and raises the entire building in just 28 hours and 45 minutes.

BRICS is preparing a payment system inspired by the Brazilian PIX that will allow direct transactions between countries using national digital currencies without relying on the dollar or Western banks as intermediaries.

Ethiopia has banned gasoline and diesel cars, placed over a hundred silent electric buses on the streets of Addis Ababa, and now aims for half a million electric vehicles by 2030, all powered by Africa’s largest dam and a courage that few countries have shown.

On the coast of China, fishermen received an official reward after finding 10 foreign underwater devices capable of “stealing secrets” in just two years, showing that the silent war for the seabed has already reached the nets of those who rely on fishing.

A view from space, an image made by NASA shows the impressive Richat Structure, a geological formation located in the Sahara Desert, also known as the “Eye of the Sahara.”

In the South Atlantic, three isolated volcanic islands cause the wind to draw perfect spirals visible from space: a rare phenomenon called von Kármán vortex streets forms symmetrical patterns behind the peaks of the South Sandwich Islands and was recorded by the NOAA-20 satellite in 2025.

Solar-powered ice factory in the Amazon that eliminated a 5-hour trip to Manaus, prevents the loss of up to two-thirds of the fish, and now ensures income for more than 30 riverside families.

The largest home appliance manufacturer in the world closed its factory in Argentina and decided that Brazil will absorb everything, transferring machines, production, and supply of entire markets to the unit in Rio Claro, São Paulo, with an investment of nearly R$ 200 million.

As the world watches with concern, Russia and North Korea are strengthening ties with the first road bridge in history between the two countries, capable of transporting 300 vehicles per day, and the inauguration scheduled for June marks a new phase of the alliance between Putin and Kim.

China has just successfully tested the world’s first ground effect maritime vehicle, a craft that flies up to 6 meters above the water at 200 km/h, uses quantum technology and 6G communication, and can rescue patients in the middle of the ocean.

The extratropical cyclone that formed in the ocean is already pushing a cold front with heavy rains over the South of Brazil, and meteorologists warn that Thursday will be the most dangerous day, with significant amounts of rain and cold advancing into Paraguay.

The war in the Middle East has already cost Brazil $882 million in exports that did not leave the country in a single month, with pork falling by 59% and soybeans declining by 25%, and now the agribusiness sector is rushing to find new buyers before the losses double.
