PBR has the largest ever global IPO last year.

To achieve this goal the company has changed the operating conditions of its process units and has optimized mixtures of naphtha. Gasoline was the fuel processed by the com[any that had the largest increase over the previous year, about 15%, driven mainly by economic growth and the high price of ethanol.
