Fuel Price Adjustment for the Period May 11 to May 31, 2026

In keeping with changes in international oil prices and the Government’s application of the modified market pass-through petroleum pricing mechanism, the retail prices of petroleum products for the period May 11 to May 31, 2026, have been adjusted as follows:

Fuel Price Adjustment – May 11 to May 31, 2026:

  • Gasoline: Unchanged at $3.52 per litre or $16.00 per imperial gallon 
  • Diesel: Unchanged at $3.52 per litre or $16.00 per imperial gallon 
  • Kerosene: Unchanged at $2.13 per litre or $9.66 per imperial gallon 
  • 20 lb Cylinder (9.07 kg): Unchanged at $34.00 per cylinder 
  • 22 lb Cylinder (9.98 kg): Unchanged at $38.00 per cylinder 
  • 100 lb Cylinder (45.36 kg): Increased from $263.50 to $288.50 per cylinder 
  • Bulk LPG: Increased from $2.51 to $2.76 per pound 

The Government of Saint Lucia continues to cushion the impact of global oil price volatility through targeted subsidies. For this period:

  • Gasoline carries a subsidy of $1.14 per imperial gallon 
  • Diesel carries a subsidy of $1.65 per imperial gallon 
  • Kerosene is subsidised at $6.76 per imperial gallon 
  • LPG subsidies remain significant, with $39.97 and $43.37 applied to the 20-lb and 22-lb cylinders, respectively 
  • The 100 lb cylinder is subsidised at $81.35 per cylinder, and bulk LPG at $0.81 per pound 

Without these subsidies, consumers would pay approximately $73.97 for a 20-lb LPG cylinder, $81.37 for a 22-lb cylinder, and $369.85 for a 100-lb cylinder. Current retail prices remain significantly lower due to continued Government intervention to shield households and businesses from the full impact of global energy price volatility.

These interventions are intended to protect consumers, households and key sectors of the economy from continued volatility in global energy markets. The next fuel price adjustment is scheduled for June 1, 2026.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
