How the latest Fueling Cost and Per-Kilometer Expenses
Filling a full tank can cost you between 60 dirhams to 180 dirhams, depending on your vehicle type and the fuel you choose. We advise you to select the right fuel type and optimise your car's fuel efficiency. It's worth noting that the per-kilometre running cost of your car or motorcycle also have increased due to the recent price hikes.
Crude Oil Rate Control Mechanism in the UAE
The UAE's Fuel Price Committee plays a crucial role in determining the per-litre price of fuel. This committee evaluates various factors, including global gas prices, supply and demand dynamics, and economic considerations, to arrive at the monthly diesel and petrol price adjustments.
UAE Fuel Price Committee
Before 2015, the Fuel Price Committee heavily subsidized oil prices, ensuring stability and protection from global fluctuations. However, UAE liberalised petrol prices in 2015, September, aligning them with international oil market trends. This move brought more transparency and responsiveness to the local fuel market but has resulted in increased prices.
What to Expect in the Coming Months
Given the dynamic nature of the oil market and various geopolitical factors, it's reasonable to expect further changes in the fuel rates in the upcoming months. Staying informed about these changes will help you make informed decisions regarding your driving habits, car usage and travel plans.
Having knowledge about the present fuel rates and patterns in the UAE is crucial for everyone. With the fluctuations in the price of petrol and diesel in recent times, it is important to take these variations into account when calculating your travel expenses.
