Platts to discontinue Petrobras Salvador VLSFO, MGO posted prices

Following a change in Petrobras bunkers posted prices, S&P Global Platts will discontinue the publication of the Petrobras Bunker VLSFO 0.5% and Marine Gasoil prices in Salvador, effective Jan. 3, 2022.

This follows Petrobras' announcement that it discontinued all bunker supply operations at the port following the sale of the Refineria Landulpho Alves, or RLAM refinery, in the Bahia state.

The Petrobras posted prices for VLSFO and MGO in Salvador have been unchanged since Dec. 1, which was the last time Petrobras provided an update.

All other Petrobras posted prices have updated to reflect the latest values provided by Petrobras.

These third-party prices are databased in Bunkerwire and Latin American Wire and published on page 876 of Platts Global Alert and page 2244 of Platts Shipping Alert.

In Bunkerwire and Latin American Wire they appear under the table titled Petrobras Bunker Postings.

The affected symbols are:

PUAVC00 - Salvador 0.5%S

PBABV00 - Salvador MGO
