The oil marketing company has reduced the price of diesel by GH¢1.50, selling the product at GH¢14.60 per litre.
Petrol on the other hand is selling for GH¢12.40, representing GH¢1 drop per litre.
The reduction, by GOIL, is in line with the two-week review in prices of petroleum products at the pumps.
Earlier, the Chamber of Petroleum Consumers-Ghana (COPEC) said petrol is expected to be sold at a minimum price of GH¢9.30 per litre while diesel is expected to be sold between GH¢12.80 and GH¢15 per litre at various pumps.
This will be a 15% and 8% reduction in the prices of petrol and diesel respectively. The new prices will, however, vary slightly depending on point of purchase (oil marketing company).
In an interview with the media, the head of research at COPEC, Benjamin Nsiah, noted that a decrease in the global prices of oil products and the recent stabilization of the cedi is responsible for the expected marginal drop.
