How Are Fuel Prices Calculated?
Fuel prices are calculated by the refineries via inclusion of processed products in Mediterranean which includes Turkey and changes in the US dollar rate. As a result of this calculation, the prices applied by distribution companies may vary slightly according to companies and cities due to their competition and freedom. With the Eşel Mobil system applied in fuel prices, the increases in domestic pump prices as a result of the increase in oil prices, exchange rate and international product prices are tried to be balanced without being reflected as a raise to the consumer with the SCT adjustment.
