Gasoline prices declined for a second consecutive week, reflecting the appreciation of the Dominican peso and reduced petroleum prices abroad. The Ministry of Industry and Commerce set the current price of premium gasoline at RD$95, down from RD$100.80. Regular gasoline will cost RD$86.60, down from RD$91 last week and regular diesel fuel will cost RD$67.20, down from RD$71.
Industrial propane will cost RD$51.45 per gallon, while subsidized propane sold in tanks of 100 lbs or less will continue to cost RD$25 per gallon.
