UAE petrol prices announced for September 2026

Prices have been raised after fluctuating significantly this year

Fuel prices are forecast to see slight increases in September as projected by the Chamber of Petroleum Consumers (COPEC). Petrol prices are anticipated to rise to GH¢16.21 per litre, marking a 5% jump from the present average price of GH¢15.43 per litre. The projection suggests petrol's international Free on Board (FOB) price will surge from $1,033.15 to $1,136.50 per metric tonne, a 10% rise.

Diesel prices are expected to climb to GH¢17.61 per litre, slightly higher than the current average of GH¢17.17 per litre. LPG prices too are projected to increase marginally, selling at GH¢14.19 per kilogramme, after its FOB price climbs from $596 to $611 per metric tonne. COPEC advocates for the government to prolong its fuel subsidy beyond August to help ease the impact of the price hike on consumers.
