Petrol prices in the UAE will marginally increase in September, ENOC announced today.

Here's the breakdown:

• Super 98: Dh2.59 a litre (up from Dh2.57 in July)

• Special 95: Dh2.48 (up from Dh2.46)

• Diesel: Dh2.64 (up from Dh2.63)

Since the start of the year, the price at the petrol pumps has been steadily increasing, despite a blip in July.

Fuel prices were liberalised about two years ago, so they now move with the market.
