Petroperú It is still in crisis, although President Dina Boluarte wants to make us believe something else. As of June of this year, the oil company recorded losses for US $ 278.2 million (approximately S/974 million).
Through the states published in the Superintendence of Market of Securities (SMV), from the public company they ensure that within the unfavorable factors are the operational restrictions derived from the port closures by anomalous waves. This, as they specified, had an impact on the operation of the Talara refinery.
In addition, they blamed the downward trend of international crude prices and products, impacting the realization of inventories. They also blamed operational restrictions in the refinery oil reception system, derived from the environmental event in the submarine terminal and port closures due to anomalous waves.
In this regard, the analyst Fernando de la Torre, recalled that in the first quarter the losses of Petroperú added US $ 111 million and for the second quarter the amount was US $ 167 million.
“The loss is not shrinking, it is growing. The specific fact is that this second quarter has sold less than in the previous period and has had a larger net loss,” he said.
To this is added, he explained that the working capital deficit has increased from US $ 2,060 million to US $ 2,333 million. “This shows that the company is not improving, but is getting worse,” he added.
With this result, the analyst considered that the result is worse than the president of Petroperú, Alejandro Narváez, had predicted, so he questioned the possibility that in 2026 the results are favorable.
“When the figures speak, the words are left over. He (Alejandro Narváez) can say what he wants, but the numbers say otherwise. Who do we believe then? Does the numbers of this man’s words or the words?” He said.
