September fuel prices to drop

The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources' Oil Derivatives Pricing Committee decided Saturday to reduce the selling price of 90-octane gasoline for the month of September to JD0.885 per liter, instead of JD0.920 and 95-octane gasoline to JD1,125 per liter, instead of JD1,160. It also said the selling price of diesel will drop to JD0.695 per liter from the August price of JD0.715, and the price of kerosene will be fixed at JD0.620 per liter and a 12.5 kg domestic gas cylinder at 7 dinars. During its monthly meeting, the committee said it reviewed global crude and oil derivatives' prices during the month of August, which showed a decline of both grades of gasoline and diesel.
