Petrobras Announced It Will Sell All Assets in the Neighboring Country As Part of Its Divestment Policy

As announced yesterday (12) by Petrobras, the sale of the Brazilian state-owned company’s businesses in the areas of fuel distribution, lubricants, and fertilizers in Uruguay has begun. According to the state-owned company, the goal is to dispose of all shares held by its subsidiary, Petrobras Uruguay Sociedad Anónima de Inversiones (Pusai), in Petrobras Uruguay Distribución S.A (PUDSA), a company operating in the distribution sector in the South American country.

In a statement, the company informed that the measure follows Petrobras’ Divestment Systematics and that “it is aligned with the optimization of the portfolio and the improvement of the company’s capital allocation, aimed at generating value for its shareholders.”

Petrobras has been pursuing a divestment policy in recent months that has even reached the neighboring country, having recently signed an agreement with the Uruguayan government to exit the natural gas distribution sector in the South American country. See more details of this transaction here.
