With the start of July’s second pricing window, some oil marketing companies (OMCs) have begun raising their prices at the pumps.
For instance, Shell, one of the leading OMCs, has increased the price of a litre of petrol from GH¢14.80 to GH¢15.10, and a litre of diesel from GH¢14.92 to GH¢15.25.
Additional OMCs are expected to increase their pump prices soon.
The Chamber of Petroleum Consumers (COPEC) has forecasted a 4 percent rise in petroleum product prices, starting Tuesday, July 16, 2024, ahead of the second pricing window for July.
