Cost Of Fuel Refills In The UAE
The cost of filling up a car's fuel tank has risen compared to the previous month, resulting in an increase of between AED 4.50 and AED 35 for a full tank, depending on the tank size. This increase in fuel prices will lead to a notable rise in per-kilometer running costs.
Petrol Price Standardisation In The UAE
Before 2015, the government heavily subsidized fuel prices in the UAE, maintaining stability despite fluctuations in global oil prices. However, in September 2015, the government adopted a liberalized approach, linking fuel prices to international oil prices. The Fuel Price Committee now determines fuel prices in the UAE, and further adjustments are anticipated in the coming months.
Verdict
UAE transitioned from heavily subsidized fuel prices to a liberalized system linked to global oil prices in 2015. The Fuel Price Committee now regulates fuel prices, allowing for more dynamic adjustments in response to international market trends. As such, motorists can expect continued changes in fuel prices in the UAE in the foreseeable future.
