Elected Petrobras directors will also be removed in a new change of command

Petrobras informed, this Tuesday (24), that the company’s directors elected in April with José Mauro Coelho should leave their positions with the new change of command in the company.

According to a statement from the state-owned company, new elections will be held for the occupation of vacant positions.

“Given that Mr. José Mauro Ferreira Coelho was elected by the multiple vote system at the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting held on 04/13/2022, if approved by the shareholders’ meeting, his dismissal will imply the dismissal of the other members of the Board elected by the same process, and the company must carry out a new election for these positions”, highlighted the state-owned company.

Petrobras also said that it received the letter from the Ministry of Mines and Energy to evaluate the new name appointed by the government, Caio Mario Paes de Andrade, to replace Coelho on the Board of Directors and ahead of the company.

“The official letter also requests that Caio Mario Paes de Andrade be subsequently evaluated by the Petrobras Board of Directors for the position of president,” he said in a statement.
