Gasoline Price Drop
Approved
The price of a litre of gasoline will drop
in next week with the approval of a price
reduction by the Autoridad Reguladora de los
Servicios Públicos (Aresep).
The Aresep yesterday approved a drop of ¢32
colones for super, ¢39 for regular and ¢32
for diesel.
When the new prices take effect, a litre of
super gasoline will cost ¢452 down from the
current ¢484; regular ¢435 from ¢474; and
diesel ¢354 from ¢386.
The reduction is based on a number of
factors, including the tax on gasoline and
the price of crude oil on international
markets between March 26 and April 9.
The price drop also includes the
reimbursement of ¢78 billion colones to
drivers for overcharging by the state
refinery, the Refinadora Costarricense de
Petróleo (Recope) .
The lower prices are expected to be
published next week in the official
government publication, La Gaceta, and take
effect the day following publication.
