The UAE on Wednesday slashed retail fuel prices by 62 fils per litre for the month of September in line with the drop in global rates.
This is the second consecutive month that the UAE has slashed retail fuel prices. In August, the prices were slashed by 60 fils per litre.
Starting September 1, Super 98 petrol will cost Dh3.41 a litre in September as compared to Dh4.03 in August, down by 15.4 per cent. While Special 95 petrol has been reduced to Dh3.30 per litre as against Dh3.92 during the comparative period, down by 15.8 per cent.
E-Plus 91 petrol will cost Dh3.22 a litre from September 1 as compared to Dh3.84 a litre in August, a drop of 16.1 per cent.
While diesel will be charged at Dh3.87 a litre in September as against Dh4.14 in August.
Oil prices have been trending downwards over the last couple of months due to worries about the recession, global economic slowdown and new restrictions imposed by China to curb the Covid-19 pandemic.
Brent was trading at $96.5 per barrel, down by 2.83 per cent while WTI was down two per cent at $89.81 a barrel on Wednesday at 10.35pm UAE time.
Retail fuel prices crossed Dh4 per litre mark for the first time in June 2022 since UAE announced deregulation in 2015 and reached a peak of Dh4.63 per litre in July 2022.
As of August 29, retail fuel prices in the UAE were cheaper than most of the countries around the world including many oil-producing countries such as Norway, according to globalpetrolprices.com.
The data showed that the global price of petrol averaged around 4.98 per litre, much higher than the fuel rates in the UAE.
