  • Petrobras Signs $521M Deal to Expand Gas Transport Fleet
    January 21, 2026, 10:21 AM EST. Petrobras and its logistics arm Transpetro have inked $521 million contracts with Brazilian shipyards to build five gas carriers, 18 barges, and 18 pushers. The move aims to expand the transportation capacity for liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), crucial for Brazil's energy needs. The fleet will enhance LPG delivery across coastal and inland waterways, supporting both residential and industrial sectors.
