1 Views

The Department of Petroleum and Mineral Resources has confirmed the official fuel price adjustments for this month which will take effect from midnight on Tuesday, 3 June.

May saw volatility in the oil price and the strengthening of the rand against the dollar relative to April.

This resulted in a consistent over-recovery in fuel prices.

However, a hike in the general fuel levy from the latest budget undercut this by around 15 cents per litre.

This has translated to a small reduction in petrol prices in June.

Petrol will be cut by 5 cents per litre for 93 and 95, and there will be a decrease of 37 cents per litre for diesel.

FUEL	PRICE CHANGE
Petrol 93	decrease of 5 cents
Petrol 95	decrease of 25 cents
Diesel 0.05%	decrease of 37 cents
Diesel 0.005%	decrease of 37 cents
Illuminating Paraffin	decrease of 56 cents

FUEL PRICE IN SOUTH AFRICA IMPACTED BY TWO MAIN FACTORS:

1. The international price of petroleum products, driven mainly by oil prices

2. The rand/dollar exchange rate used in the purchase of these products

Oil price

At the time of publishing the brent crude oil price is $65.15 a barrel.

Exchange rate

At the time of publishing the rand/dollar exchange rate is R17.88/$.

The next price changes for both petrol and diesel will be confirmed early next month with the new prices taking effect at midnight on Tuesday, 1 July 2025.

Go easy on the accelerator until then, Mzansi.
