PETROLEUM PRICING



Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, December 1, 2018 The Island Regulatory and Appeals Commission approved the following petroleum pricing decisions, effective 12:01 a.m., Saturday, December 1, 2018:

  • Gasoline prices will decrease by 1.0 cent per litre (cpl);
  • Furnace and stove oil prices will decrease by 2.4 cpl
  • Diesel prices will decrease by 1.4 cpl; and
  • Propane prices will decrease by 1.0 cent per litre (cpl) for Superior Propane and there will be no change for Kenmac Energy Inc. or for Irving Energy Distribution and Marketing.

Including adjustments for taxes, pump prices for regular unleaded gasoline at self-serve outlets will now range from 104.2 cpl to 105.3 cpl. Pump prices for diesel will now range from 126.6 cpl to 127.8 cpl. Maximum before tax propane prices will now range from 80.3 cpl to 80.5 cpl.

The maximum price for furnace oil will now amount to 89.4 cpl, plus tax. 

As the market continues to react to falling crude prices and ample refined product inventory levels, falling wholesale prices continue to be observed allowing for the additional price reductions announced today.

The Commission’s next scheduled price adjustment will be on December 15, 2018.
