HIGHER prices of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) greeted consumers this month.
Petron and Solane, in separate advisories, announced that they will hike prices of their LPG products starting Saturday, February 1.
Petron said it will increase LPG prices by 70 centavos per kilogram.
Solane-branded LPG products also said it will implement a 73 centavos per kilogram adjustment to its prices.
According to Petron, the price hike reflects the international contract price of LPG for the month of February.
The adjustment translates to a P7.70 to P8.03 increase for a regular 11-kilogram household LPG cylinder.
Cleanfuel also announced that the price of its automobile LPG price went up by P0.35 per liter.
The Department of Energy’s price monitoring in Metro Manila before the adjustment showed that prices of 11-kilogram household LPG ranged from P860 to P1,140 while auto LPG was commonly priced at P42.55 per liter.
