The Chamber of Petroleum Consumers (COPEC) has foreseen a slight uptick in petroleum prices during the initial pricing window of August 2023.

Moreover, the price of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) is predicted to experience a 20 percent increase.

These price increases are attributed to the rise in international market rates for petroleum products, with crude oil witnessing a 10.53 percent increase from an average of $75.85 per barrel to $83.84 per barrel.

COPEC has accordingly projected the following retail prices for petroleum products in the upcoming pricing window:

  • Petrol: GH¢13.27 per liter
  • Diesel: GH¢13.93 per liter
  • Mean price for Petrol and Diesel: GH¢13.33 per liter
  • LPG: GH¢11.79 per kilogram.
