“Pricing policy: The National Committee for Hydrocarbons regulates prices based on an import-parity formula and reviews them every four weeks. Fuel price subsidies have incurred budgetary expenditures every year except 2010. For decades, government heavily subsidized LPG for household use. Today, the unit prices of LPG sold in 2.7-, 6-, and 9-kg cylinders are still slightly lower than those for LPG sold in larger cylinders; the price differences used to be much larger in the past. In deregulated markets, unit prices should decrease with cylinder size on account of large economies of scale in storing, bottling, and transporting LPG. There is no specific tax on kerosene, leading to a large price difference between kerosene and diesel. Government in Feb 2012 decided to reduce fuel taxes at an estimated cost of CFAF35 billion (0.5% of GDP).
Consequences of subsidies: The subsidies to the refinery and for LPG in 2009 are estimated to have amounted to US$70 million. The inability to reimburse the refinery resulted in closure of the refinery for a while, causing serious fuel shortages.”
