The main factors that contributed to the generation of net income in relation to the 1Q-2006, were as follows: • A 1% decrease in net operating revenue: • A decrease of 2% in the Average Realization Price (ARP) of basic oil products on the local market in the 1Q-2007 (emphasized by fuel oil and aviational kerosene) and a reduction of 13% (ARP) in exports, reflecting the behaviour of Petroleum rates on the international market (Brent 16%) and of fuel oil (13%), contributing to the decrease in the net operating revenue in relation to the 1Q-2006. • An increase of 3% total sales volume, with an emphasis in the local market on fuel oil (7%), in LPG (4%) and in naphtha (2%), that were compensated partially by a reduction of 1% in diesel oil sales. International market sales increased by 12%, with petroleum contribution of 37% of that, influenced by an increase in production and by the necessity of import substitution, partially compensated by the reduction of gasoline exports (-38%) and of fuel oil (-7%). |
