In a statement, the FCCC said: “Fiji is directly impacted by the world market prices for both refined oils and LPG. As such, any changes to the world market prices will be reflected in Fuel and LPG prices in Fiji.”
“The Fuel and LPG price review implemented by FCCC follows a one-month lag period, as such the November 2021 Fuel and LPG prices are based on the importations made in September 2021 by Fuel and LPG Companies. FCCC has used average Saudi Aramco Butane Contract Price (CP) for September and October 2021 to determine the LPG price for November 2021.”
The FCCC will conduct the next Fuel and LPG price review on 1 December 2021.
