Jordan Sets September Fuel Prices
The Jordanian government has decided to fix fuel prices for September despite the rise in global prices during August, as markets experienced increases in oil and derivative prices such as diesel and kerosene due to geopolitical tensions in the region. The prices are set at 1,000 fils per liter for 90-octane gasoline, 1,310 fils per liter for 95-octane gasoline, 850 fils per liter for diesel, and 550 fils per liter for kerosene, with the continued support of household gas cylinders at 7 dinars. Since the onset of the crisis, the government has absorbed approximately 224 million dinars of the price difference to mitigate the impact of these increases on citizens and the economy. The decision to keep prices fixed aims to limit volatility and provide local stability despite the rise in global costs. The government continues to assess global market developments to ensure a balance between protecting consumers and maintaining economic stability.
