Most fuel prices increase overnight

The Public Utilities Board has set maximum prices for petroleum products in all areas of the province except where maximum price adjustments have been suspended.

Gas barely moved, going up 0.1 cents per litre. Diesel went up by 3.7 cents on the Island and 3.6 cents in western Labrador.

Furnace oil went up by 3.15 cents, and stove oil on the Island is up by the same amount.

Propane heating fuel decreased slightly by 0.1 cents per litre.

The changes to maximum prices reflect recent changes in market commodity prices. The Board’s next regularly scheduled price adjustment is on Friday, November 21.
