The agreement, however, is subject to the approval of the relevant corporate bodies.
Petrobras also received binding proposals from undisclosed firms for the sale of the Presidente Getúlio Vargas Refinery (REPAR), in Paraná.
The firm in a statement said: “The firm decided to close the process, since the conditions of the presented proposals fell short of Petrobras’ economic-financial evaluation. Thus, the company will start a new competitive process for this refinery in due time.”
Petrobras is also considering the sale of multiple other refineries, including the Alberto Pasqualini Refinery (REFAP) in Rio Grande do Sul, the Isaac Sabbá Refinery (REMAN) in Amazonas, the Abreu e Lima Refinery (RNEST) in Pernambuco, and the Gabriel Passos Refinery (REGAP) in Minas Gerais.
