The National Energy Regulatory Agency states a tendency of stabilization and balancing of gasoline and diesel prices in Moldova.
The National Energy Regulatory Agency (ANRE) informs that after almost three months of atypical phenomenon observed on the Moldovan market, when diesel prices were considerably higher than those of gasoline, ANRE marks the stabilization and balancing of both parameters. The relevant phenomenon is explained by a decrease in the supply of petroleum products in certain periods in relation to the demand, largely due to regional events and the war in Ukraine. The energy regulator emphasizes that there is currently a repositioning of the traditional parity between the two types of fuel (gasoline and diesel fuel), which leads to an increasing convergence of their price levels. For comparison, if in October the price of diesel was even 3.77 lei per liter higher than the price of gasoline, in the current situation this difference is gradually decreasing, reaching only 0.27 lei per liter. The price of standard diesel fuel, set for tomorrow, will drop below the level of 27 lei per liter. In particular, as of November 18, the maximum retail prices for basic standard petroleum products are set by ANRE as follows: gasoline COR 95 - 26.69 lei per liter (-14 bani); standard diesel - 26.96 lei per liter (-11 bani). ANRE stresses that it guarantees consumers the correctness of the maximum retail prices for basic standard type oil products, calculated according to the formula established by the legislation in force, and ensures the control of compliance with their level by all companies in the sector. // 17.11.2022 - InfoMarket
