Petrobras Expands Its Product Portfolio at the Port of Santos, Offering Ultra Low Sulphur Marine Gas Oil (ULSMGO).

This new marine fuel option has a maximum sulfur content of 0.1%, meeting the more restrictive limits of Emission Control Areas (ECAs). According to Sandro Paes Barreto, Executive Manager of Marketing in the Internal Market at Petrobras, “this measure reflects our concern for society and ensures lower emissions.”

The company previously offered conventional Petrobras Marine Gasoil (MGO) at the port for long haul and cabotage operators. This has a maximum sulfur content of 0.5%. Both products are mainly obtained from the lighter fractions of the refining process. With this new offering, Petrobras helps reduce emissions of the pollutant sulfur oxide, while also allowing for lower costs and travel times through ECAs.
