How are petrol, diesel prices determined?
Since 2015, fuel prices in the UAE have been moving in line with the international markets.
Prices are determined by the fuel price committee, chaired by the undersecretary of the Ministry of Energy.
The committee includes members of the energy and finance ministries, as well as CEOs of Adnoc Distribution and Emirates National Oil Company.
The committee, when deciding the fuel pieces, does not rely on just one global market. It considers an average of global prices as well as operating costs of distribution companies.
