UAE fuel prices for September: How much could your next full tank cost?

## Anticipated Fuel Price Adjustments

As September approaches, UAE motorists are keenly awaiting the announcement of new fuel prices. The UAE Fuel Price Committee is expected to adjust rates soon, aligning them with global market trends. Recent declines in Brent crude, which has dropped about 9% over the past five days, suggest the possibility of stable or slightly lower fuel prices for the upcoming month.

## Current Prices and Potential Savings

Currently, UAE drivers pay Dh3.60 per litre for Super 98, Dh3.49 for Special 95, and Dh3.41 for E-Plus 91. Diesel is priced at Dh3.80 per litre. For a typical 60-litre tank using Special 95, the cost is approximately Dh209.40. A reduction of 10 fils per litre could save motorists Dh6 per fill, while a 20-fils decrease could save Dh12.

## Factors Influencing Price Changes

The UAE's fuel pricing system, deregulated in 2015, considers average international prices and operational costs rather than daily crude oil prices. This means that even if Brent crude falls significantly, it does not directly translate to an equivalent drop in UAE petrol prices. Other factors, such as refined product benchmarks and transportation costs, also play a role.

## Market Trends and Future Outlook

Recent market movements, including diplomatic efforts to improve oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz, have contributed to the decline in Brent prices. Additionally, OPEC+ plans to increase production quotas, which could further influence supply and pricing dynamics. These developments create a more favorable environment for potentially lower fuel prices in September.

Motorists should watch for the official announcement from the UAE Fuel Price Committee to understand the exact impact on their fuel expenses.
