    Temer urges Congress to approve bill easing oil industry regulation and Petrobras monopoly

    The proposed regulatory framework would “create new jobs” and “provide a new boost to investment in the sector,” Temer said at the Rio Oil and Gas conference.

    President Michel Temer urged Congress on Monday to approve a bill that would ease oil industry regulation and strip state-controlled oil giant Petrobras of some of its privileges in Brazil's most promising oil fields. The proposed regulatory framework would “create new jobs” and “provide a new boost to investment in the sector,” Temer said in an address at the opening of the Rio Oil and Gas conference.
