Fuel firms to continue price hikes this week

MANILA: Aside from worrying about flooded roads due to the rainy season, motorists will have to endure continued price hikes for petroleum products. 

Per the announcement made by the Department of Energy (DOE), gasoline products can go as high as P1 per liter across the board for all varieties (unleaded and premium). Meanwhile, diesel can jump anywhere from P2.62 to P4.62 per liter across the board (regular and diesel plus). 

Kerosene, on the other hand, can increase in price from P2.22 to P4.22 per liter.

For the possibility of rollbacks, there is a chance that gasoline prices can slide down by P1 per liter. 

Compared to last week’s price adjustments, this week’s are higher. Here is what it looks like at a glance:
