RUSTENBURG HERALD - RUSTENBURG - Petrol prices were expected to see minor adjustments on Tuesday night this week with Petrol 93 swinging into an over-recovery and lining up a small cut.
Month-end data from the Central Energy Fund (CEF) shows that fuel price recoveries have turned a corner at the 11th hour, with only Petrol 95 still in the red.
The pendulum has slowly been swinging in favour of motorists since the start of the month thanks to a much stronger rand and a narrowing gap in petrol and diesel product prices.
This has led to a small over-recovery in Petrol 93 of 3 cent per litre, with over-recoveries in diesel between 8 and 11 cents per litre.
Petrol 95 is still showing a small under-recovery of 4 cents per litre.
The final adjustments for the month will be announced by the Department of Petroleum and Mineral Resources on Wednesday, 1 October.
Petrol 93: decrease of 3 cents per litre;
Petrol 95: increase of 4 cents per litre;
Diesel 0.05% (wholesale): decrease of 11 cents per litre;
Diesel 0.005% (wholesale): decrease of 8 cents per litre;
Illuminating paraffin: decrease of 12 cents per litre.
