Arequipa: the price of a LPG bottle does not decrease and is quoted at an average of S / 47

In the city of Arequipa, the price of a 10-kilo LPG bottle remains at a average of 47 soles. The last increase occurred on Saturday, October 30, and it was the second price increase since LPG entered the Fuel Stabilization Fund.

The last hike was around 4 to 5 soles. Previously, another increase of similar value was registered. It is worth remembering that, in mid-September, LPG in this southern city fell to 38 soles after entering the stabilization fund. Before the subsidy, it reached an average of 45 soles per 10-kilo ball.

According to the application Facilito by Osinergmin, LPG in Arequipa costs 41 soles in some distribution points such as Characato. The highest price is 51 soles for the Huaranguillo area.

In his last statements, the hydrocarbon specialist Antonio Gamero said that entering the LPG into the stabilization fund was not a good decision. He explained that the fund allows a greater margin of price variation, which the supplier companies would be using.

He added that the State should prioritize the renegotiation of the Camisea gas concession contract so that the LPG produced with the liquids from the field is not affected by the national reference value.
