Eduardo Bacellar Leal Ferreira has been re-elected as chairman of the Brazilian state-controlled oil

company Petrobras. Ferreira had joined the oil giant in January 2019.

The Brazilian firm has revealed that it has achieved a new monthly record in April for the use of

natural gas from its producing fields of 97.7%.

However, working with a restricted number of employers on board facilities and operating only

essential services due to the pandemic, led Petrobras to postpone the commissioning of new

production units, which will be resumed in September.
