The focus on Rotterdam is in line with the Petrobras policy of rationalising its international presence in 2021, taking into account the world’s three major oil markets: Europe, North America and Asia. The company’s commercial activities outside Brazil will be consolidated in offices in Rotterdam in the Netherlands, Houston in the United States and Singapore. This measure of deactivating external offices between 2019 and 2021 will result in savings of up to 13.5 million dollars per year.
The Port of Rotterdam Authority is delighted with the arrival of Petrobras and its choice of Rotterdam as headquarters for its European trading activities. The arrival of Petrobras confirms Rotterdam’s international reputation as major liquid energy trader and energy market.
The City of Rotterdam is also very pleased with the choice of Rotterdam. The arrival of the European head office is in line with the city's ambitions to further expand Rotterdam's international position as a Global Trading hub.
