Monday, February 12, 2018
From a report by the Ministry of Economy of El Salvador:
The United States reported its second increase in its oil inventories on February 7 of this year, in which its production reached a record of 10.25 million barrels per day (bpd) in the last week, as reported by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA); where an 11 week downward streak was reversed, affected by low temperatures and the holiday season.
As a result, distillate stocks, including diesel and heating fuels, rose by 3.9 million barrels per week, compared to the expectation of a 1.4 million barrel per week drop, allowing for slight drops in diesel and distillate prices.
Price per gallon of regular gasoline: Nicaragua $3.81, Costa Rica $3.76, Honduras $3.53, El Salvador $3.36, Guatemala $3.22 and Panama $3.07.
From the Ministry of Economy of El Salvador statement:
The increases in gasoline prices for the current fortnight are largely because of the prolonged fall in gasoline reserves, which add up to 7 consecutive weeks, according to reports provided by the IEA, detailing a reduction of 21.4 million barrels. This decline is equivalent to the one suffered between February and April 2017, which in 10 consecutive weeks reduced 22.9 million barrels, which reflects the marked difference in the increase in prices of regular and higher gasoline.
Price per gallon of regular gasoline: Costa Rica $3.48, Nicaragua $3.28, Honduras $3.19, El Salvador $2.81, Guatemala $2.75 and Panama $2.56.
From the Ministry of Economy of El Salvador report:
The increase in the reference prices for the current fortnight, according to the last two reports provided by the IEA, is because the reserves of gasoline and diesel show decreases in the last two weeks.
Price of a gallon of regular gasoline: Costa Rica $4.22, Nicaragua $3.99, Honduras $3.78, El Salvador $3.58, Guatemala $3.54 and Panama $3.24.
From a statement issued by the Ministry of Economy of El Salvador:
The latest report provided by the IEA states that inventories of oil and its derivatives from the United States fell by 1.4 million barrels, which has affected prices in the global market; likewise, gasoline inventories dropped by 3.8 million barrels, while distillate and diesel reserves decreased by 100,000 barrels; It should be noted that during the last two weeks these inventories have decreased a total of 7.7 million barrels, these figures impact the prices of domestic liquid fuels, due to the fact that El Salvador is a net importer of petroleum products.
Price of gallon of regular gasoline: Costa Rica $3.93, Nicaragua $3.74, Honduras $3.63, Guatemala $3.31, El Salvador $3.29 and Panama $2.99.
From a report by the Ministry of Economy of El Salvador:
The harsh winter that has hit the United States has caused an increase in the production of energy generated frompetroleumderivatives, which is used for heating, as well as the general consumption of derivatives in the North American country, which has contributed to a decrease in reserves in the United States.[GRAFICA caption = "Click to interact with graph"]
