The UAE is set to announce the new petrol prices for June in the coming days.
Petrol prices across the country increased in May, as costs for motorists increased for the fourth consecutive month.
Since January, petrol prices have increased every month and the cost of diesel has fluctuated.
UAE petrol prices 2024
In January 2024, E-Plus 91 was priced at AED2.64 a litre, while diesel was set at AED3 a litre.
E-Plus 91 and Diesel are both now more expensive (at AED3.15 a litre and AED3.07 a litre).
Special 95 and Super 98 are also more expensive now than at the start of the year, rising from AED2.71 to AED3.22 a litre and AED2.82 to 3.34 a litre respectively.
From May 1, the cost of filling up vehicles in the UAE has been:
- Super 98 – AED3.34 a litre from AED3.15 in April
- Special 95 – AED3.22 a litre from AED3.03 in April
- Diesel – AED3.07 a litre from AED3.09 in April
- E-Plus – AED3.15 a litre from AED2.96 in April
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the Fuel Price Committee froze petrol prices in the UAE, preventing any changes.
However, in March 2021, as global oil prices began to rise, the controls were lifted to allow market forces to determine petrol prices once again.
Moreover, the fluctuation in petrol prices is also influenced by changes in crude oil prices worldwide.
