Gasoline Prices Going Up Again
Here we go again, another change
in the price of gasoline is
around the corner, this time an
increase.
The Autoridad Reguladora de
Servicios Públicos (Aresep)
received a required by te
Refinadoa Costarricense de
Petroleo (Recope) for an
increase of ¢13 colones to the
price of gasoline and diesel.
Once approved, the price for a
litre of super gasoline will
jump to ¢476 from the current
price of ¢463 colones, regular
will go to ¢453 from ¢440 and a
litre of diesel fuel will cost
¢326 colones from the current
¢313.
Recope says the increase to
adjust for the fluctuating price
of crude oil on world markets.
However, the price of crude oil
set by the Petróleo Intermedio
de Texas (WTI) - which is used
as a base for prices in Costa
Rica - fell to us$61.58 from
s$62.41 yesterday.
