international market.
A survey yesterday showed that the pump price of unleaded petrol went up to between US$1,45 and US$1,50 from between US$1,42 and US$1,44 while diesel shot to US$1,35 up from about US$1,32 per litre.
Prices of the environmentally-friendly blended fuel, E10 also went up from US$1,36 to US$1,41 per litre and remains the cheapest fuel on the market.
Most fuel dealers confirmed that prices had gone up as a result of increased demand and increases of oil prices on the international market. Sakunda Holdings public relations manager Ms Sarah Manyengawana confirmed the increases.
“The latest increases were in the region of about US$0,02 per litre. You will note that world market prices went up by about 15 percent over the last two months mainly because of the stand off between the West and Iran,” Ms Manyengawana said.
She also attributed the increases to the growing United States economy where there is increased demand for fuel.
