Petrol price remains unchanged

The price of petrol will remain unchanged next month, the Department of Energy says.

The main factors for the unchanged fuel price include the Rand depreciating slightly against the US Dollar and the international price of Brent crude oil experiencing a slight increase during the period under review.

The department said while the price of petrol will remain unchanged, diesel will decrease by 5 cents per litre, illuminating paraffin will decrease by 7 cents per litre and Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) will decrease by 17 cents per kilogram. – SAnews.gov.za
