(MENAFN- Brazil-Arab News Agency (ANBA)) Rio de Janeiro – Brazilian oil company Petrobras reported it set a new record in S-10 type ultra-low-sulfur diesel (ULSD) production in October this year. In the month, the state-owned company produced 2.38 billion liters. The previous record was in July this year, also around 2.38 billion liters.

S-10 diesel has a maximum sulfur content of 10 parts per million (ppm), which, according to the company, causes less environmental impact.

Two refineries also achieved record output in the month: Paulínia (Replan), in São Paulo, with 645 million liters, and Duque de Caxias (Reduc), with 163 million liters.

According to Petrobras, its refineries are operating with a high Capacity Utilization Factor (CUF), and the outstanding performance was due to“high reliability and optimized operation of refining assets, supported by robust technology solutions.”

“Petrobras is committed to investing in refining to meet commercial commitments with reliability, operational availability, valuing people and profitability of units, always guaranteeing the safety of operations,” said the company's Industrial Processes and Products director, William França, in a release by the oil company.
