Asopetrol alerta que lucros baixos da Ecopetrol podem sufocar a empresa

O sindicato Asopetrol alertou que a Ecopetrol enfrenta um sufocamento financeiro devido à queda nos lucros do primeiro trimestre de 2026. A alta carga tributária e a revalorização do peso foram citadas como fatores fundamentais.

O sindicato Asopetrol alertou sobre os riscos de sufocamento financeiro para a Ecopetrol após os resultados do primeiro trimestre. A empresa registrou lucros acima de 2,8 trilhões de pesos, marcando seu pior início de ano desde a pandemia.

O presidente do sindicato, Óscar Bravo, observou que a alíquota efetiva de imposto atingiu 37,1 por cento. Isso decorre em parte de um imposto extraordinário sobre o patrimônio não dedutível de 1,2 trilhão de pesos.

A valorização do peso frente ao dólar subtraiu aproximadamente 2,6 trilhões dos resultados. Bravo afirmou que o governo deve parar de extrair riqueza de uma indústria até que ela pare.

O sindicato também apontou a possível migração de talentos e da empresa para a Venezuela em meio à sua reativação petrolífera. Proteger a Ecopetrol salvaguarda o futuro econômico do país, de acordo com Bravo.
