The price of gasoline and diesel will be lowered by NT$0.7 (US$0.023) and NT$0.8 per liter, respectively, starting at midnight Sunday, state-owned refiner CPC Corp., Taiwan said.
After the drop, the biggest this year, prices at CPC gas stations nationwide will be NT$28.5 per liter for 92 octane unleaded, NT$30.0 per liter for 95 unleaded, and NT$32.0 per liter for 98 unleaded, while super diesel will be NT$26.5 per liter.
Meanwhile, privately owned Formosa Petrochemical announced identical price cuts, with effect from 1 a.m. Monday, which means prices at its gas stations will be NT$28.5 per liter for 92 octane unleaded, NT$29.9 per liter for 95 unleaded, NT$32.0 per liter for 98 unleaded and NT$26.2 per liter for super diesel.
