Balneario Camboriu also drew attention to this. At the time, Santa Catarina, a city on the north coast, ranked as the most expensive household gasoline in Brazil.
A liter of gasoline cost 7.35 reais at a gas station in the city, only the regular version was 0.10 reais cheaper than the additive version. The city differs from the state’s average gasoline price of R$4.85 per liter between October 9 and 15.
The price of gasoline has risen in Brazil
The average price of gasoline in Florianopolis follows the “movement” registered throughout Brazil. After 15 weeks of consecutive declines, fuel prices have risen again this week.
Also, according to the ANP weekly survey, the price of regular gasoline was recorded at 4.85 reais, according to a study in 1953 resale points.
The increase follows a new rise in gasoline at the Maritape refinery, the country’s largest privately controlled refinery. Acelen, the company responsible for its operation, announced on Saturday (15) a 2% adjustment. It has already corrected the values 7 days ago by 9.7%.
Acelen ads follow the trends of the international market. The price of a barrel of Brent oil, which dropped sharply to $82 in September, has again topped $90 this month.
Growth was influenced by the decision of OPEC (Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries) to sharply cut production.
