According to the newspaper Folha de S.Paulo, Petrobras readjusted today "the price of cooking gas by about 5%". According to the newspaper, the price increase is valid for all types of LPG (liquefied petroleum gas), which includes domestic (for cooking) and industrial gas.
This is the fifth increase in domestic gas in 2019. The last was on November 25, when Petrobras (PETR3; PETR4) readjusted the domestic gas cylinder price by 4%.
According to a survey by the National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP), in the early days of December, in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, the price of cooking gas rose twice the inflation measured by the IPCA.
Already the price of ethanol in the pumps of gas stations in Brazil is the highest in the last six years. To make matters worse, the price of gasoline has also skyrocketed. Thus, fuel readjustments make life harder for Brazilians this holiday season.
