After last week’s hikes, motorists can heave a sigh of relief as petroleum products will have slight reductions starting Tuesday, November 19.
In separate advisories, Seaoil, Petro Gazz, CleanFuel, and Shell Pilipinas said diesel prices will decrease by 75 centavos per liter while gasoline and kerosene prices will go down by 85 centavos and 90 centavos, respectively.
