                    [Title] => Total cuts LPG price by P1 per kilogram
                    [Summary] => 

Total Philippines Inc. yesterday initiated another round of price increase for liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) or the cooking gas.


Total, one of the leading suppliers of LPG in the market, said the latest P1 per kilogram LPG price hike, which will be implemented today, is to partially reflect the P4.50 per kilo increase in contract price for December and January.


The other LPG suppliers — Petron Corp., Pilipinas Shell and Caltex Philippines — have yet to follow Total’s move.

                    [Summary] => 

Amid the looming increase in power rates, consumers may still have a reason to cheer up. Prices of petroleum products went down across-the-board yesterday by P0.50 per liter as the prices of the benchmark Dubai crude continued to soften in the world market. The price of liquefied petroleum gas or cooking gas also shrank by P0.56 per kilogram for the standard 11-kilogram cylinder.


Petron Corp. said it rolled back pump prices for Blaze, XCS, Xtra, Dieselmax, kerosene and regular gasoline at 8 a.m. yesterday.

Yesterday, Total Philippines Inc. and Eastern Petroleum Corp. increased their pump prices by 50 centavos per liter due to competitive pressures.  The three big oil firms — Petron Corp., Pilipinas Shell and Caltex Philippines — raised their prices yesterday by the same level.

SEC Chairman Lilia R. Bautista told reporters that while the commission is not expecting a miraculous revival this year, there is enough reason to expect that the number of initial public offerings (IPOs) will double last year’s total of 11 companies or even more.
