Some Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) in Ghana have increased the prices of petroleum products sold at the pumps by about 4 percent, Citi Business News<\/strong> checks have shown.<\/p>\n

The increment is part of a two week price review window following the full deregulation of the petroleum downstream sector.<\/p>\n

The increase has been largely attributed to the rise in world market price of oil, which is now selling around 46 dollars per barrel.<\/p>\n

Goil and Shell are among the OMCs with an increase in the prices of their products.<\/p>\n

Petrol has been increased by 12 pesewas, with a litre selling at 3 cedis 59 pesewas as against the 3 cedis 47 pesewas it was earlier being sold for.<\/p>\n

Also, the price of a litre of diesel has been increased by 10 pesewas, currently selling at 3 cedis 39 pesewas after selling for 3 cedis 29 pesewas.<\/p>\n

Some other OMCs, however maintained their old prices with no changes.<\/p>\n

For example, Champion Oil has still pegged the price of petrol at 3 cedis 46 pesewas.<\/p>\n

The price for a litre of diesel was also maintained at 3 cedis 26 pesewas.<\/p>\n

Oil marketing company, AP also maintained its prices with a litre of petrol selling at 3 cedis 52 pesewas; while a litre of diesel was pegged at 3 cedis 29 pesewas.<\/p>\n

Citi Business News<\/strong> checks at Engen and Total pump stations revealed the two are yet to change the prices of their products.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile the So Fresh station at Adabraka had rather reduced its prices with a litre of petrol now selling at 3 cedis 48 pesewas, dropping by 8 pesewas after selling at 3 cedis 60 pesewas.<\/p>\n

Also, the price of a litre of Diesel has reduced by 1 pesewa, currently selling at 3 cedis 29 pesewas. It was previously going for 3 cedis 30 pesewas.<\/p>\n
