Annual Industrial Survey Released Last Thursday (06/06) Shows Oil Industry as Leader in Best Salaries, Followed by Mining Sector

IBGE research indicates that the oil extraction sector had the highest salaries in 2017. The sector paid seven times more than the average salaries in other industrial activities.
The Annual Industrial Survey also showed a decline in the average salaries across the industry of 12.8% over a decade, but it also indicated that the income of workers in the oil and gas sector rose by 76.1%.

Regarding the average salaries across sectors, oil and gas companies paid average salaries equivalent to 21.3 minimum wages, while the rest of the industry paid an average of 3.2 minimum wages.
The survey ranked the mineral extraction industry second, with an average of 9.6 minimum wages in 2017, and third, the manufacturing of coke, petroleum derivatives, and biofuels, with 8.8 minimum wages.

Growth of the Oil Sector

The 44% growth in employment in the oil and gas sector is proportional to the growth of national production, between 2008 and 2017, which increased from 1.8 million barrels per day to 2.6 million barrels per day due to the discovery of colossal pre-salt fields.

An even greater growth of the oil and gas sector is expected, as after three years without area offers, we already have 3 oil auctions scheduled for 2019, and the idea of ANP is to hold at least 3 auctions per year, which will attract significant foreign investment to the sector.
