fuels for the supply of Brazilian industries, thermoelectric plants and oil refineries, including import and export activities.
 The terminals and pipelines operation is an important link in our supply chain. The oil is transported from the production fields to Transpetro terminals by pipeline or ship. From there, it is transported to refineries or for export. After refining, the oil products are drained through pipelines to the terminals to be delivered to fuel distribution companies, which supply the Brazilian and global markets. This operation covers a 7,768 km pipeline network and 45 terminals, of which 24 are marine and 21 are onshore (including the operation of Transbel, a fully-owned subsidiary of Transpetro, established due to the obligation of auctioning public port areas). Transpetro operates terminals owned by Petrobras and third parties, with a total nominal storage capacity of 10.73 million m3. In 2024, Transpetro handled 651 million m3 of oil, oil products and biofuels, totaling 6,143 operations with tankers and oil barges.
 We move oil and oil products, whether by cabotage or long-haul navigation, in response to the demands of our customers. The fleet operated by Transpetro comprises 33 vessels (26 of which Transpetro owns and seven of which we contract through the subsidiary Transpetro International BV), and this operating fleet has an average age of ten years. The transport capacity of this fleet is 3.2 million deadweight tons. In 2024, this fleet handled around 46.6 million m3 of oil and oil products, about 23% of the cargo handled by Petrobras by sea.

  We are constantly looking for excellence in the integrity of our assets and operational efficiency.
 The operational efficiency of Transpetro’s fleet, represented by the Operational Availability Index (which calculates the proportion of time the vessel was operationally ready, excluding the time spent in dry dock), was 99.2% in 2024 as compared to 99% in 202
