Enemalta Corporation also announced that the price of gasoil for heating will also be going slightly down as from tomorrow to €0.71 per litre as against the current price of €0.73 per litre.

The price of thin fuel oil, which is heavily used by industry and tourism, will also go down as from tomorrow.

The price of TFO 200 will go down by €22 per litre, from the current price of €547 per litre to €525 per litre.

TFO 450 will also see its price going down by €22 per litre, from the current price of €535 per litre to €513 per litre, while the price of TFO 900 will go down by €24 per litre, from the current price of €515 per litre to €491 per litre.

According to Enemalta, the September petrol consignment was based on September Platts prices “which on average were higher than the previous delivery pricing basis”.

However, petrol prices for the month of October will go marginally down “due to favourable exchange rate movements at the time of purchase,” the Corporation explained.

Diesel consignment was also based on September Platts prices “which on average were higher than the previous delivery pricing basis”.

“In addition, the diesel consignment was purchased at a less favourable exchange rate than the petrol consignment. This brought about an increase in the diesel prices for the month of October,” Enemalta concluded.
