Overview

• Receita Federal, with Navy support, retained two shiploads carrying 91 million liters of diesel and 115 tonnes of additives valued at over R$ 290 million for forensic analysis.
• ANP imposed a precautionary interdiction on Refit after inspections found no evidence of active refining, unauthorized tank use, higher‑risk storage and suspected misclassification of imports.
• More than 100 samples of gasoline, diesel, nafta, condensate and additives were collected, and technical and financial‑flow analyses are pending.
• Refit rejected the allegations, asserted lawful operations and said it will seek to overturn the shutdown once formally notified.
• Regulators and industry report no immediate risk to supply as Petrobras’ Reduc can cover demand and the IBP set up a situation room to reroute volumes, while probes linked to Carbono Oculto and the PCC continue.
