Fuel prices have begun edging downward as Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) roll out new pump rates at the start of the second pricing window of April, effective Thursday, April 16, 2026, offering modest relief to consumers.

The changes follow revised minimum pricing benchmarks set by the National Petroleum Authority, as well as recent government interventions aimed at cushioning fuel costs.

Star Oil has adjusted its prices in line with the new benchmarks. Petrol has been reduced by 3 pesewas per litre, from GH¢13.30 to GH¢13.27, while diesel recorded a sharper drop of GH¢1.00 per litre, falling from GH¢17.10 to GH¢16.10.
