After threats Petrobras strengthens security at refineries
By MYBRANDBOOK
According to a news report, two company officials of Petroleo Brasileiro SA have said that the company has beefed up the security at its refineries in a precautionary measure after threats against assets.
The threats were detected by Petrobras' intelligence unit monitoring social media communications of supporters of Brazil's far-right former President Jair Bolsonaro, the two people said.
The state-owned company said that all its assets and refineries were operating normally.
"Petrobras is taking all the preventative protective measures required, as a standard procedure," it said in a statement.
Thousands of Bolsonaro' supporters on Sunday invaded the country's Congress, presidential palace and Supreme Court, destroying furniture and shattering windows, in an echo of the U.S. Capitol invasion on Jan. 6, 2021, by supporters of former President Donald Trump.
The sources said that Petrobras’ refineries in Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Parana are the target. The company has a private security workforce of 1,000 people and is also working with state police.
According to Brazil's Mines and Energy Minister, Alexandre Silveira, the country’s fuel supply as well as refineries would run normally.
"Besides monitoring the status of protests in these structures, we remain alert and in coordination with other ministries and states to ensure the supply," he said in a statement.
Rio de Janeiro's Governor Claudio Castro said on Twitter he had deployed state and city police to reinforce security at Reduc, the state's main refinery.
