Petrom hiked Eco premium prices to RON4.06 per liter, while unleaded Premium 95 prices will cost RON4.03 per liter.

Also, the price of one liter of unleaded Top Premium 99+ gasoline will be hiked to RON4.36.

One liter of OMV Carrera 95 and of OMV Carrea 100 will also cost more, namely RON4.13 and RON4.76 respectively.

One liter of Top Euro Diesel 4 will cost RON4.42, while one liter of OMV Premium Diesel will cost RON4.75, the company said.

Petrom’s OMV Sprint Diesel will cost RON4.47 per liter, while its Euro Diesel 4 will cost RON4.34 per liter.

The company operated its latest pump price increase on May 12.

In May, Romanian Ministry of Economy and Finance, Varujan Vosganian, repeatedly said Petrom should not increase fuel prices anymore.

Rompetrol and Lukoil have cut fuel prices in the last month, while Petrom’s prices stayed the same.

Early May, Petrom hiked its pump prices twice, by RON0.12 per liter, which represented an important increase on the Romanian market.
