That's cheap!

Presumably, there must be a website with International fuel price
comparisons. But here goes with a few:

Saudi Arabia, Gasoline (Benzine);     $0.24/l (That's three times the price
of six years ago.)
Saudi Arabia, Diesel;                            $0.10/l

UK, Gasoline;                                         $1.20/l
UK, Diesel                                               Just a little below
the price for Gasoline

USA, Gasoline;                                        $0.46/l (CMIIW)

By my calculations, the current price of crude is $0.16/l. I don't know how
much gasoline, or diesel, you get from a litre of crude - but it looks like
some people are getting fuel at less than the cost when it comes out of the
ground. (Although crude prices aren't exactly that, are they?)

Supplementary: What is the capacity of a standard barrel of crude - is it 45
Imperial (UK) gallons, 55 US gallons, or 200 litres?

And I take it you have all heard about the UK fuel price protests (now
ceased).

Cheers, Alan.

Hi,

Does anyone out there have any information on Fuel Prices especially Gas
(CNG or LPG), Diesel Fuel and Gasoline.

For your information The prices in Indonesia are as follows

CNG    Rp. 440 = US $ 0.05 / liter equivalent
LPG    Rp. 880 = US $ 0.10 / liter equivalent
Diesel Rp 550 = US $ 0.07/l
Regular Gasoline     Rp. 1000 = US $ 0.12/l

Thank a lot for your information
