The date you are setting is in the GMT timezone. When you use format_date, it will add the timezone offset to that date, which is why you're getting the different dates. To get around that do this set 'custom' for format_date's second argument then the third argument is the pattern. The forth argument is the timezone offset. Set that to 0 and it won't calculate an offset (leave it as null and it will use Drupal's offset variable, which you set in admin).
format_date($node->data_assentament,'custom', 'd-m-Y H:i',0)

Making some research my problem is with format date:
$node->data_assentament -> 1247781600
date("d-m-Y H:i", $node->data_assentament) -> 17-07-2009 00:00
format_date($node->data_assentament,'medium') -> Dij, 07/16/2009 - 22:00
(I need the date in dd/mm/YYYY format)
Should I avoid format_date() or there is a better way to solve this?
