Let’s talk about AdBlue prices and the fuel increase! South Africans were in for a massive shock this week, as the fuel prices were increased to the highest it’s ever been! The question on everyone’s lips is: “Will AdBlue prices will be influenced by the fuel price hike that has affected diesel and petrol this week?”
A litre of 95 ULP in Gauteng, which cost R16.32 just last week, has increased to R17.32 a litre. Meanwhile, diesel (0.05% Sulphur) has increased by 65.20 cents a litre, while the price of diesel (0.005% Sulphur) has increased by 63.20 cents a litre. “The average Brent Crude oil price increased from 61.10USD to 64.00USD per barrel during the period under review. The dramatic price fluctuations are attributable to a variety of events; including low U.S. crude oil inventory figures, the expected increased economic activity in the U.S. due to the approval of their economic stimulus and a vessel stuck in the Suez Canal causing a delay for all cargo containers including oil tankers,” said the department.
Additionally the Minister of Finance, stated in the Budget Speech in February 2021, that the Fuel and Road Accident Fund (RAF) Levies on both petrol and diesel will increase by 16 cents a litre and 11 cents a litre respectively with effect from Wednesday, 7 April.
“With effect from 07 April 2021, the Fuel Levy in the price structure of petrol and diesel will therefore amount to 393 and 379 cents a litre respectively. The Road Accident Fund Levy in the price structure of both petrol and diesel will amount to 207 cents a litre with effect from 07 April 2021,” said the department.
