The Ministry of Mines and Energy regulated prices in the privatized downstream fuel sector of Namibia. On their internet website (http://www.mme.gov.na/energy/fuels.htm, Annex A1), they offer some information about fuel pricing. However, an exact description of the price composition and actual fuel prices are missing.
According to the ministries website, diesel prices are only regulated at the wholesale level, i.e. the retailers market is liberal for diesel; pump prices for gasoline are regulated. (This is also the case for South Africa.)
A ‚Slate‘-Mechanism is used to compensate volatile In-Bond Landed Costs (IBLC) of liquid fuels. Fuel prices are recalculated quarterly using a Price Adjustment Mechanism established in 1997. This mechnism accounts for changed IBLC and the current ‚Slate‘-balance.
Regulated prices hold for the coastal cities. Fuel prices in inland cities, that are supplied with fuels via train, are subject to an additional transportation fee reflecting the actual costs.

Fuel Price Composition
Price composition.
Fuel prices differ by actual transportation costs, i.e. inland prices are higher than coastal prices.
There are no more fuel subsidies in Namibia. It is unclear, whether there is a taxation on liquid fuels.
A more exact description is missing.
