Gasoline Price
Ups and Downs
Get ready to shell out more for a litre of
gasoline, as the Autoridad Reguladora de los
Servicios Públicos (Aresep) is analyzing the
latest request by the state refinery for a
hike of ¢20 colones for a litre of super;
¢15 for regular or plus; and ¢5 for diesel.
The increase is based on the current
exchange rate of the US dollar to the Costa
Rican colon and the price increases of crude
oil on international markets.
That increase, if approved, would take
effect the middle of June
The Aresep last month approved a decrease of
¢12 colones per litre of super; ¢13 for
regular; and ¢14 for diesel.
The reduction is expected to take effect at
the gasoline pumps around the country by the
third week in May.
