“…To sum up, the differences among the contract terms determine how much a producing nation earns from its natural resources and the opportunities for corruption. For instance, large contractors in Brazil formed a cartel, frustrating Petrobras' bids in contracts in Brazil (Pereira et al 2021). This is why civil society should make contractual terms accountable and transparent.…”

Lyra, Rodrigo P. (2023). The Decision-making process of Petrobras ' International Contracts (PhD Thesis). International Relations Institute of the University of Sao Paulo and King's College London Most of the differences between National Oil Companies (NOCs) and International Oil Companies (IOCs) are related to NOCs' mixed objectives, as most NOCs must pursue national and commercial missions. Therefore, they do not perform as profit-maximising companies in all their operations. Based on DEA Analysis, we show that between 2011 and 2017, Petrobras was mainly below the performance of other oil companies, including other NOCs. As a NOC, Petrobras is not entirely forbidden to take non-commercial issues. However, Brazil's Court of Auditors (TCU) claimed that Petrobras does not provide details on the relationship between the company and Brazil's government and how this relationship may have affected the company's decision-making process. This thesis investigates who sets the agenda of Petrobras' international contracts to understand if non-commercial goals (foreign policy and political parties' interest) led to constraints in the company's ability to make autonomous decisions. We applied a mix-methods approach. First, we collected all Brazilian diplomatic cables from 1994 to 2017 and Petrobras' financial reports from 2004 to 2012. Second, we conducted quantitative text analysis on these documents so as to measure the frequency of keywords on each database. Descriptive statistics showed us the most important international oil companies to be analysed. Based on this information, we did case studies on the major Petrobras' international contracts signed with the major international oil companies. We crossed the information with diplomatic cables of the USA's Department of State, TCU, Brazil's Chamber of Deputies, and Brazil's Operation 'Car Wash' on corrupt decisions taken by Petrobras' former directors. We also collected diplomatic cables in London, Paris, and Montevideo. We argue that the initiators of Petrobras' international contracts depend on the type of contract and the place of investment. We find political party initiative in all the joint-ventures contracts deemed, all related to international contracts that initially would count on PDVSA's partnership for projects in Brazil. On the other hand, concession contracts were settled by Petrobras' board of directors, and we found no evidence of political parties' interference in the negotiation process. However, the acquisition of assets in Uruguay, which started with the potential purchase of ANCAP and resulted in the purchase of Conecta SA, was the only case where we can affirm that MRE called the shots. Petrobras' potential investments were crucial to bringing Uruguay closer to MERCOSUR in the context of the energy crisis in the 2000s. In the cases where MRE did not settle the agenda but got involved in the negotiation during the process, we find that MRE was interested in promoting Brazilian biofuels in some of the contracts, such as in Chile, and mediating the co...

A promulgação da Lei 14.133/2021 representou um novo marco no Direito Administrativo brasileiro, tangenciando o Direito Financeiro, cuja interseção será aqui evidenciada, a partir dos seus arts. 105 a 108, concernentes à duração plurianual dos contratos administrativos. O problema reside na possível discordância dessas mudanças com o ordenamento financeiro pátrio, especialmente a regra da anualidade orçamentária, confrontada com o princípio da eficiência administrativa. A hipótese é de compatibilidade com a Constituição, sem violação da anualidade orçamentária com base na eficiência administrativa nas contratações públicas. A pesquisa propõe abordar a relação causal entre as mudanças no regramento das contratações públicas e o princípio da eficiência administrativa. O estudo se propõe a investigar como o novo modelo de contratação, que transcende o exercício fiscal, se relaciona com as normas brasileiras de Direito Financeiro. Objetiva-se identificar as alterações introduzidas, expor os princípios orçamentários relacionados e destacar o impacto dessas mudanças sob a perspectiva da anualidade e da eficiência administrativa. Destaca, ao final, a relevância dessas mudanças para a eficiência administrativa nas contratações públicas.
