Prices Of Fuel Up Again

Some Oil Marketing Companies have begun marginally increasing fuel prices following the start of the second pricing window in January. Leading players, including state-owned GOIL and Shell have already adjusted their prices for both petrol and diesel. At GOIL, petrol which was sold at GH₵14.99 per litre during the first pricing window of January, is now retailing at GH₵15.74.

Diesel has also seen a slight rise, moving from GH₵15.60 per litre to GH₵15.77. Shell has similarly raised the prices of its petroleum products. Petrol, previously sold at GH₵15.30 per litre, is now priced at GH₵15.59. Diesel has increased from GH₵15.66 per litre to GH₵15.79. The hike is being attributed to rising crude oil prices on the international market and the depreciation of the cedi.

At the time of publication, some Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) were yet to adjust their prices. Star Oil continues to sell petrol at GH₵14.75 and diesel at GH₵14.99. Similarly, Total Energies is selling petrol at GH₵15.50 and diesel at GH₵15.99. These prices remain unchanged from the first pricing window in January.
