Takes a bit of time, but if it continues expect everything you buy to cost 18% more.

 

Most commercial transport uses diesel which is pegged to < 30Baht per litre.

If that is the case then they are expecting the price of crude to increase within 3 months because that is how crude is sold i.e. on a 3 month forward look.

According to the title the increase ends today.

Probably because the price of crude has gone down. This price would have been agreed in the beginning of January. The Oil & Gas industry works on the pricing of a 3 month advance period.

So whats the deal? This always gets passed on to the little guy. Takes a bit of time, but if it continues expect everything you buy to cost 18% more.

Seems to be 14%, not 18% and then only if you select the extremes of the graph rather than a period of time, eg. it's only 4.5% up from October '23 to date.

Oh no it ain't. Bht 30.37 in my neck of the woods. 30.84 at Shell.

Premium diesel, whatever that is, 44.84. Will my Vigo go faster on it? 555

Price ceiling was lifted effective April 2.

100 billion Baht have been burned for that since September.

So far not much impact (except Shell with +0.5).

Maybe due to the promise of PTT that prices during Songkran won't rise.

 

(most info from The Nation)

 

It's naive to assume that Thai fuel prices follow simple market mechanisms/oil price.

It's a complicated system (oil fund) and politically driven.

One effect stable Diesel prices and high flying 95 gasohol.

 

That EV is looking even more attractive :smile:

I remember when 85 gas hall was at 22Bht  liter TIT 

I am so glad that I could resist to have an E85 adapter installed when the price was 18 Baht.

(car is specified for E20)
