Petrobras Turns to Cardano to Track Green Claims on Jet Fuel and Renewable Diesel
- On Wednesday, Petrobras announced two blockchain research projects on Cardano to track environmental claims for sustainable aviation fuel and renewable diesel, developed with the Cardano Foundation and Pontifical Catholic University .
- The collaboration aims to make sustainable fuel data auditable and verifiable for airlines and passengers seeking green fuel proof. Rafael Fraga, LATAM business development lead at the Cardano Foundation, said public blockchain builds trust by design.
- One tool uses a Book-and-Claim model for sustainable aviation fuel, issuing standardized CS-SAF tokens on Cardano that decouple environmental benefits from physical fuel, allowing airlines to claim reductions aligned with CORSIA standards.
- A second proposed model targets Diesel R, recording production and transportation checkpoints to build a complete lifecycle history, helping companies report indirect Scope 3 emissions while preventing double counting of environmental benefits.
- Both initiatives remain in the research phase with no announced timeline for commercial use, extending a relationship that began in December 2023 when the Cardano Foundation launched blockchain workshops for more than 40,000 Petrobras University employees.

Petrobras tests Cardano to track low-carbon aviation fuel and diesel
Petrobras has developed two research-stage applications with the Cardano Foundation and PUC-Rio to track environmental claims for sustainable aviation fuel and lifecycle data for its renewable-content Diesel R. The Cardano Foundation announced the projects on Sep. 30, describing applications developed…
ADA news: Cardano tapped by Brazil’s state oil giant to track cleaner jet fuel and diesel
Petrobras is testing the blockchain in two research projects aimed at preventing emissions benefits from being counted twice and tracing fuel data across production and use.
🚨 Petrobras announced two Cardano-based applications for tracking lower-carbon fuels. ✈️ The first system tracks who owns the environmental rights associated with sustainable aviation fuel, using the infrastructure of the $ADA network for these records. ⛽ The second system combines production, transportation, and usage data of renewable fuel into a single structure. 📚 The collaboration between Petrobras and Cardano expanded following a corpora…
