May 25th, 2015 (InsideCostaRica.com) Price hikes announced by Costa Rica’s Regulatory Authority for Public Services (ARESEP) last week will go into effect on Friday.
Super gasoline will increase in price from ¢600/liter to ¢643/liter; regular gasoline from ¢575 to ¢610; while diesel will increase from ¢478/liter to ¢514/liter.
ARESEP said in a press release that the increases are the result of falling stocks of the refined products in the United States and increased demand in that country.
