Fuel standards and the gradual convergence with global frameworks

Brazil has introduced new regulatory developments affecting both aviation and maritime fuels, reflecting ongoing modernization of the country’s energy framework.

Market impact

Recent regulatory measures go beyond technical updates and signal a broader shift in Brazil’s fuel framework:

  • updated specifications for aviation kerosene, increasing compliance thresholds and certification requirements
  • policy signals on maritime fuels indicating gradual alignment with international decarbonization standards

These developments are likely to impact fuel supply chains and logistics structures, particularly for operators dependent on imported or blended fuels

Legal

Market participants should closely monitor:

  • technical compliance obligations and certification requirements
  • alignment with international decarbonization standards
  • overlap between energy, environmental and maritime regulation
