Tongatapu, Vava’u consumers pay more for LPG products

The price of LPG products in Tongatapu and Vava’u for the December 2016-March 2017 quarter have increased as of today.

The retail price of LPG in Tongatapu has increased by 0.13 seniti/kg to a new price of $3.55 per kg.

Consumers on Vava’u will be paying a new rate of $3.60 per kg for LPG.

A statement from the Ministry of Commerce, Consumer, Trade, Innovation and Labour says the increase for Vava’u is smaller than Tongatapu due to receiving a parcel when the prices were still below US$400/tonne.

The price change is said to be based on the published monthly Saudi Contract Price for cargoes discharged in September, October and November.
