MANILA, Philippines — Pump prices of gasoline and diesel will be raised by P0.90 and P1.05 per liter, respectively, starting Tuesday, Feb 21.
The price of kerosene will be rolled back by P0.25 per liter.

The price hikes come after two weeks of fuel price rollbacks.
According to the Department of Energy, the two main reasons for the upward price adjustment are Russia’s plan to cut crude
production and the International Energy Agency’s announcement raising its global oil demand forecast for 2023.
Price adjustments were anchored on the Mean of Platts Singapore (MOPS), which is the pricing reference of the oil companies in the domestic deregulated downstream oil industry.
Estimates were made based on the four-day trading average in the global oil market from Feb. 13 to 16.
