Petrobras’ 2024 profits below those attained the year before

Brazil’s State-owned oil company Petrobras activities yielded R$36.6 billion (US$7.5 billion) in profits last year, according to a report released Wednesday in Brasilia. However, these figures are below 2023’s performance, when the company recorded a net profit of R$124.6 billion (US$24.9 billion), the exchange rate variation in debts between Petrobras and its subsidiaries abroad playing a key role in these results.
