Prices Fall At BP

Prices Fall At BP

The price of petrol and diesel fell today with BP decreasing the price of motor spirits by 3 cents per litre and diesel by 2 cents per litre.

New average pump prices

91 Unleaded $1.75.9
95 Unleaded $1.83.9
Diesel $1.18.9

Please note Ultimate diesel is $1.19.9

BP Managing Director Mike McGuinness says BP is pleased to be able to pass on another decrease at the pump.

“We are able to pass on a decrease today because of the decrease in international refined product prices to the NZ motorist.”

“BP monitors both costs and the exchange rate daily and is committed to passing on the benefits of the both the higher dollar and lower product costs to motorists as quickly as possible.”

Pump prices in New Zealand are determined by the international price of refined petrol and diesel (purchased in US dollars), the US/NZ exchange rate, taxes and levies, international shipping costs and local operational costs.

Prices at most BP owned service stations have dropped to 175.9 cents per litre for Unleaded 91 and 118.9 cents per litre for diesel.
