On Monday, Petrobras reduced the price of aviation kerosene (QAV) by around 1.5% despite the increase in the price of oil in recent days.
The adjustments vary according to the market served by the company, ranging between 1.4% and 1.7%, as disclosed in a table by the oil company. Oil has shown high volatility, alternating between small increases and drops.
In March, Petrobras had raised the price of fuel between 8% and 8.5%. The price of the QAV has been used as an argument by airlines for the Government to assist the sector, which was severely damaged by the Covid-19 pandemic.
In February, QAV fell 0.4%, according to data from the state-owned company.
