Gasoline and Natural Gas
Prices Drop Approved
Good news for the
pocketbook, gasoline and
natural gas prices are
coming down next week.
The Autoridad Reguladora
de los Servicios
Públicos (Aresep)
approved a reduction of
¢13 colones for a litre
of super gasoline, ¢12
for regular and ¢16 for
diesel. In addition,
natural gas used
primarily for cooking
will drop ¢19 colones
per litre.
The reduction in prices
is expected to go into
effect next Thursday,
following the
publication of the
Aresep approval next
Wednesday in the
official government
publication, La Gaceta.
The reduction is due to
lower crude oil prices
on international markets
and the colon/dollar
exchange rate.
