UAE petrol and diesel prices to rise in November

Petrol prices across the UAE will rise in November, it has been announced.

Prices fell in recent months having in July reached their highest level since they were liberalised in 2015 to allow them to move in line with the market. The high prices came amid soaring global oil prices.

The breakdown price per litre for November is as follows:

Super 98: Dh3.32— from Dh3.03 in October

Special 95: Dh3.20 — from Dh2.92 in October

Diesel: Dh4.01 — from Dh3.76 in October

E-plus 91: Dh3.13 — from Dh2.85 in October

In 2020, prices were frozen by the Fuel Price Committee after the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. The controls were removed in March 2021 to reflect the movement of the market.

Oil prices, although edging lower on Monday, were set for their first monthly advance since May on Opec+’s planned supply cuts.

Brent crude is still up about 10 per cent this month after a decision by the Opec+ alliance to make sizable cuts to output.

The curbs take effect from November and are the start of an uncertain period for oil supply heading into winter, with the European Union set to implement sanctions on Russian flows in December.

“The market is poised to continue moving higher as Russian sanctions are set to take effect on December 5 and as OPEC+’s 2-million barrel a day cut enters into play,” James Whistler, the managing director of brokerage Vanir Global Markets in Singapore, told Bloomberg.

Oil has shed a about quarter of its value since June as concerns over a global economic slowdown and tight monetary policy threatened to curtail demand.

West Texas Intermediate was down 1.6 per cent at $86.49 per barrel in afternoon trading having settled down 1.3 per cent on Friday.

Brent crude was down 1.5 per cent at $94.35 per barrel, having slipped 1.2 per cent on Friday.

Three stars

Conflict, drought, famine

Estimates of the number of deaths caused by the famine range from 400,000 to 1 million, according to a document prepared for the UK House of Lords in 2024.
It has been claimed that the policies of the Ethiopian government, which took control after deposing Emperor Haile Selassie in a military-led revolution in 1974, contributed to the scale of the famine.
Dr Miriam Bradley, senior lecturer in humanitarian studies at the University of Manchester, has argued that, by the early 1980s, “several government policies combined to cause, rather than prevent, a famine which lasted from 1983 to 1985. Mengistu’s government imposed Stalinist-model agricultural policies involving forced collectivisation and villagisation [relocation of communities into planned villages].
The West became aware of the catastrophe through a series of BBC News reports by journalist Michael Buerk in October 1984 describing a “biblical famine” and containing graphic images of thousands of people, including children, facing starvation.

Band Aid

Bob Geldof, singer with the Irish rock group The Boomtown Rats, formed Band Aid in response to the horrific images shown in the news broadcasts.
With Midge Ure of the band Ultravox, he wrote the hit charity single Do They Know it’s Christmas in December 1984, featuring a string of high-profile musicians.
Following the single’s success, the idea to stage a rock concert evolved.
Live Aid was a series of simultaneous concerts that took place at Wembley Stadium in London, John F Kennedy Stadium in Philadelphia, the US, and at various other venues across the world.
The combined event was broadcast to an estimated worldwide audience of 1.5 billion.

Freezer tips

  • Always make sure food is completely cool before freezing.
  • If you’re cooking in large batches, divide into either family-sized or individual portions to freeze.
  • Ensure the food is well wrapped in foil or cling film. Even better, store in fully sealable, labelled containers or zip-lock freezer bags.
  • The easiest and safest way to defrost items such as the stews and sauces mentioned is to do so in the fridge for several hours or overnight.
