Fuel Pricing
- The fuel prices in Yemen are fixed by the government and are heavily subsidized.
- Avaiation fuel are not subject to government subsidies.
- From June 2011 the government has increased the official price of fuel, Petrol and Diesel. The Petrol – usually supplied in two categories’ quality - common and super - is now regularly available at petrol station only for super quality at the cost of YR 175 per liter, which represents an increase of approx. 230% compared with May 2011. The Diesel is still subsidies by the Government for categories as Public Entities, Bakeries, Farmers and Hospitals. The Diesel is released by the Yemen Petroleum Company (YPC) to petrol station’s owners at YR 120 per liter. However, only a minimal part of the Diesel is dispatched/sold at petrol station, being the majority of the Diesel traded at the black market, at more remunerable rates. It is worth mentioning that the system is now stabilized either for the Petrol and the Diesel.
- Taking in to account that the official rate of the Diesel at petrol station before the crisis (April 2011) was YR 50 per liter and that the new rate fixed by YPC since July 2011 is YR 120 per liter for petrol station we can state that the increase applied by the Government on the Diesel is approx. 140 percent.
- During the fuel crisis there was a shortage of the fuel in the fuel market of Yemen and in order to ensure the continuity of the Humanitarian operational and enhance the predictability, WFP set-up the fuel distribution systems in Sana’a, Aden and Haradh with the total storage capacity of 364,000Liters of fuel under the Logistics Cluster.
...
- Yemen Oil and Gas Corporation (YOGC) is responsible for the distribution of all refined products within Yemen.
- Products from Aden refinery are shipped to Mokha port and transferred to tankers (trucks), those from Marib refinery are transferred to tankers (directly).
- YOGC then transport the fuel to 1 of 14 countywide distribution hubs, from where final delivery to commercial outlets is also controlled by YOGC.
Is the transportation infrastructure and fleet sufficient to handle current domestic needs as well as increased demand from the humanitarian community? Yes
