BP Leads Reduction in Petrol Prices

BP has this morning dropped the price of petrol by 3 cents per litre.

Prices at most BP-owned service stations are:

91 Unleaded: $ 214.9 cents per litre
95 Unleaded: $ 222.9 cents per litre
Ultimate Diesel: $ 155.9 cents per litre

“The cost of international product prices has steadily declined over the last few days, and although the NZ dollar has softened slightly, we’re pleased to pass on this decrease to motorists,” BP Managing Director Matt Elliott said.

“Slowing economic growth around the globe has reduced oil demand and driven the prices downwards,” he added.
