From Crude Price to Pump Price
The figures above are the value of raw crude oil, not the price you pay at the pump. South African petrol and diesel pump prices add:
- Refining margin (turning crude into petrol/diesel) — built into the Basic Fuel Price (BFP)
- General Fuel Levy — ~R3.96/litre on petrol
- Road Accident Fund levy — ~R2.18/litre
- Customs & excise, slate levy, carbon tax
- Transport (zone differential) — adds ~70c/L inland
- Wholesale + retail margins
