Replan exceeds 2 billion liters of petroleum products for seven months in a row and has the highest annual streak since 2014

The Paulínia Refinery (Replan), Petrobras' largest refining unit, recorded a streak of seven consecutive months with production exceeding 2 billion liters of petroleum products per month, according to data from the National Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels Agency (ANP).

The sequence recorded between March and September is the longest within the same year at the refinery since 2014, when the unit remained ten consecutive months above the level of 2 million cubic meters (m³).

The difference is that, in 2026, the average production is 2.25 billion liters per month, above that observed during the record series of 2014 (2.14 billion).

To g1, the company has already highlighted that Replan's performance is linked to the conflict in the Middle East, whose response to the instability of the external scenario was to increase its own production.

The data also places 2026 among Replan's busiest years of activity. Until September, four of the five highest monthly volumes in the historical series started in 2000 were recorded this year:

August/2026: 2.36 billion liters

May/2026: 2.35 billion liters

March/2026: 2.32 billion liters

July/2026: 2.31 billion liters

October/2025: 2.24 billion liters

Largest in Brazil

Petrobras' largest refinery, Replan has the capacity to process 69,000 m³ of oil per day (69 million liters), equivalent to 434 thousand barrels, and serves 30% of the Brazilian territory.

A project to expand the refinery's processing capacity, scheduled for completion in 2027, will make it possible to increase production from the current 434 thousand barrels per day to 459 thousand barrels per day, an increase of approximately 5%, according to Petrobras.

For comparison purposes, the second refinery in oil processing volume is Revap, in São José dos Campos (SP), with 40 million liters per day.

Paulínia’s production is transported to the following locations:

Interior of São Paulo - receives most of the production, 55%

South of Minas

Mining Triangle

Mato Grosso

Mato Grosso do Sul

Rondônia

Acre

Goiás

Brasilia (DF)

Tocantins

In May 2025, Replan put into operation the new Diesel Hydrotreatment Unit (HDT-D), capable of producing 63 thousand barrels of S-10 diesel per day, which is equivalent to 10 million liters/day. This is enough to fuel, for example, 20,000 buses with a 500-liter tank.

Diesel is the main product that leaves Replan for distributors, but the refinery also produces gasoline, aviation kerosene (QAV), liquefied petroleum gas (GLP - cooking gas), fuel oils, asphalt, sulfur (some goes to the cosmetics industry), propylene (used in the manufacture of plastics) and other derivatives that are even used in the production of tires.
