Petrobras and Petrogal share natural gas processing units

Petrobras has announced that the Integrated Processing System (SIP) contract signed with Petrogal Brasil has now entered into operation.

The contract provides for Petrogal's access to the gas processing units, owned by Petrobras, located in the states of Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, linked to the Integrated Drainage System (SIE).

The implementation of the SIP allows gas-producing companies in Brazil to sell their volumes directly to their customers. This movement is part of a set of actions that enable the diversification of agents, resulting in increased competition, in compliance with the commitments assumed by Petrobras with the Administrative Council for Economic Defense (CADE) in 2019.

The entry into operation of the Petrogal contract is another milestone in the opening of the natural gas market in Brazil, and demonstrates the commitment of partners and other agents involved in contributing to the development of a competitive and sustainable market in the country. In the future, other companies producing natural gas may join the SIP.
