BP Drops Fuel Prices
9 January 2002
BP has dropped the price of petrol by three cents a litre today with immediate effect.
Petrol prices at most BP owned service stations have dropped to 93.9 cents per litre for Unleaded 91, and 98.9 cents for Premium Unleaded.
BP will lower its wholesale price (what it charges independently-owned BP service stations) by 3 cents a litre from midnight tonight.
Regions already enjoying discount pricing will not see a price change.
BP Managing Director Peter Griffiths said lower petrol prices are a welcome start to the new year.
