Weekly Review Points Slight Fluctuations in Diesel Prices in Main Brazilian Regions.
From 09/24/2023 to 09/30/2023 and comparing with the first week of October, interesting patterns emerged. These indicators demonstrate that although diesel pricing in the regions showed subtle variation, it is crucial to be attentive to constant fluctuations. Even the slightest oscillation can trigger significant impacts on both corporate operational costs and consumer budgets.
Regional Price Overview
In Brasília, a decrease in S10 diesel prices of -2.19% was noted, stabilizing at R$ 6.25. Meanwhile, common diesel fell by -2.10%, reaching R$ 6.06. Curitiba, on the other hand, adjusted the price of common fuel down by -4.38%, hitting an average of R$ 5.89. Macapá did the opposite, raising S10 diesel by 2.22%, priced at R$ 6.92. Natal and Porto Alegre followed the downward trend with -4.67% (R$ 6.13) and -3.72% (R$ 5.96) respectively. São Paulo registered a more subtle decrease in common diesel of -0.34%, settling at approximately R$ 5.86.

According to Ricardo Henrique, a specialist from IPTC, the previous week showed a relative stability in diesel prices, still aligned with the upward trend. “The maintenance of this stability scenario in certain areas may continue in the coming weeks, alleviating fears of significant increases in fuel prices, as recently announced by Petrobras,” Ricardo emphasized. He also pointed out that the lack of complete data hindered a broader analysis of price variation in all capitals.
Highlighted Capitals
In the survey, Rio Branco holds the position of the capital with the highest diesel prices, with S10 diesel costing R$6.98 and common diesel at R$6.92. In contrast, João Pessoa emerges as an economic refuge, where S10 is sold for R$6.00 and common at R$5.78.
IPTC in Focus
The IPTC, or São Paulo Institute of Cargo Transportation, is responsible for studies and analyses addressing road cargo transportation throughout Brazil. The institute offers tools that benefit professionals and stakeholders in the sector. One of its main activities is data collection to illustrate the sector’s trajectory broadly and with technical robustness. This entity stands out as a vital source for understanding and improving TRC services in its multiple facets.
