The cost of petrol in the UAE
As a result of the pandemic caused by the coronavirus in 2020, the Fuel Price Committee decided to freeze prices. In order to bring the price of oil in line with rising costs around the world, the limits were eventually lifted in March of 2021.
In addition, increases in the price of crude oil around the world have a secondary effect of pushing up the cost of petrol.
