Petrobras decreases its sales revenue 29.9% in 2020

The Brazilian company Petrobras reported that it decreased its sales revenue 29.9% in 2020, to 53,683 million dollars.

Although total sales volume increased, as a strong increase in exports (30% year-on-year) more than offset the fall in demand in Brazil, net income decreased due to the fall in Brent prices (35%) and in the sales of petroleum derivatives, with greater added value than crude.

According to Petrobras, its sales revenue fell mainly due to:

  • Decrease in household income ($ 19.66 billion), mainly as a result of:
    1. Decrease in revenues from oil derivatives (16,637 million dollars) mainly reflecting a decrease in the average prices of diesel and gasoline due to the fall in Brent prices, as well as a lower volume of sales of gasoline, diesel and jet fuel , reflecting the effects of the pandemic.
    2. Lower revenues from natural gas ($ 2.28 billion), mainly reflecting lower demand from the thermoelectric market.
  • Decrease in export earnings (2.14 billion dollars), mainly driven by lower Brent prices. This effect was partially offset by higher export volumes of crude oil and petroleum products.
  • Decrease in income from operations abroad (1,106 million dollars) mainly due to the sale of the Pasadena refinery and distribution companies in Paraguay, lower international prices and the effects of the pandemic.
