Something which has been bothering me for a while now is the price of gas.

The price of petrol I paid a week ago is R7,67 per litre and the promise is for it to come down further from beginning August. The price of gas I bought this morning works out to something like R18,43 per kg (which is probably equivalent to a litre).

The petrol price is regulated, but the gas price not. A dealer therefor base his price on what the competitors charge.

Lots of our petrol comes from oil imports, but I think lots of gas comes from Mossel Bay.

Is there anyone who could perhaps give us some insight into the difference in price?
