Brazil, which became a net oil exporter in 2019, wants to expand its footprint in global energy markets without joining the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (Opec). The South American nation expects to be among the top-five energy exporters by 2030, and is tapping private investment to boost output, according to energy and mines minister Bento Albuquerque. It is also working on making rules more favourable for investors in upcoming auctions for oil and natural gas licences. “The idea is just to increase our production and to participate more in the international oil and gas market,” he said in an interview in New Delhi. “But this is not a plan for Brazil to join Opec or any other association or group of oil and gas producers. We don’t want restrictions, we want to increase our production.”

As concerns about climate change soared last year, the boss of Brazil’s biggest company delivered a message to try to assuage anxieties. Roberto Castello Branco, the president of oil company Petrobras, promised to increase efforts to curb emissions, saying decarbonisation was “one of our priorities.” The positive message, however, masks an inconvenient truth: in contrast with many of its global peers, Petrobras has made scant effort to diversify into green energy.
