CPC, Formosa to hold fuel prices steadyEATING THE RISE: CPC is expected to absorb NT$5.6 per liter for gasoline and NT$7.5 per liter for diesel under this week’s pricing, chairman Fang Jeng-zen saidStaff writer, with CNACPC Corp, Taiwan (台灣中油) on Saturday said that it would leave domestic gasoline and diesel prices unchanged this week, while Formosa Petrochemical Corp (台塑石化) yesterday announced a similar move, despite international crude oil prices remaining elevated. CPC also took into account subsidy policies in neighboring markets to ensure Taiwan continues to have the lowest retail gasoline and diesel prices in the region, Fang said. Effective today, retail gasoline prices at CPC and Formosa stations would remain at NT$32.4 (US$1.02), NT$33.9 and NT$35.9 per liter for 92, 95 and 98-octane unleaded gasoline respectively, while premium diesel would stay at NT$31 per liter at CPC stations and NT$30.8 per liter at Formosa pumps. It would be the second consecutive week that the two companies have kept domestic fuel prices unchanged. Under the latest pricing, CPC is expected to absorb NT$5.6 per liter for gasoline and NT$7.5 per liter for diesel this week, although the burden would be lower than the previous week, Fang said.
