Local daily O Estado de S. Paulo cited banking House Itau BBA saying that state-controlled oil major Petrobras will increase fuel prices in the course of 2014 and reach parity with the world market level by 2015. Details on the exact date or magnitude of the price increase were not available, according to the bank. Petrobras is the sole refiner in the country, and the federal government is therefore able to set comparably low fuel prices at the pump. This means that Petrobras has to import fuel at world market level and sell it at a loss.
