Well you would hope it would be cheap as its probably coming straight from the well
Ridiculously low, the EU needs to investigate imposing a carbon emission border levy of some kind on these countries.
Is it only petrol they use mostly, or is diesel common there aswell?
What’s that expressed in “dead foreign workers per kilometre”?
Cheap when you’re the ones drilling for it I suppose.
Still too dear
Saudi arabia is the greatest country for drivers and very few other demographics
The greens would go nuts if we got petrol for 56c.
Can’t think of a single downside to living there. Unless you’re slave labour. Or gay. Or a woman. Or all of those.
Wonder why, almost seems like there’s no massive shipping costs associated with it
Gowl
Looks cheap, but back when I was working on a Saudi project back in 2015 or so, it was about €0.08/litre.
So if you’re local, fuel costs 7 times what it did 7 years ago.
Similar inflation in Ireland would put it at about a tenner a litre now.
Ice is free at the North/ South Pole.
Cheap petrol but how much is the fruit and veg??
The tax we pay in fuel is ridiculous…then more tax again with road tax ..wtaf!..we pay more to drive a car than most other countries and yet we probably drive shorter distances given the size of the island …beggars belief
How much is the water fee?
Yeah but if you’re a woman you can’t buy it or drive unaccompanied.
Sometimes I think for the 300 million they made in April, could the government not use some more of the foreign investment capital, which is 28 billion surplus. Fuel effects everything.. that building shortage here gets harder as costs rise etc.
They could make petrol free and I still wouldn’t live there. The one country on the planet I have zero desire to ever visit.
For reference our petrol in Ireland is minimum 95 octane, so the more expensive (but still super cheap) price should be used for comparison.
They could pay me to use petrol and I wouldn’t live in Saudi Arabia.
Petrol should not be that cheap anyway. We had a massive climate change induced heatwave across the entirety of Europe *last week*.
Saudi Arabia = the pimple on the arse of the planet
Land of habibi and circumcision !
But how much is a pint of Guinness?
I bet the sand is cheaper also.
How much is a pint though?!
yeah, who would have guessed a country with some of the largest oil supplies in the world has a lower cost than a net importer
I imagine turf, potatoes, and water are more expensive there though…
thought it would be cheaper
No diesel?
Did you get a chance to catch a beheading or maiming show?
The sooner we can move away from oil the better.
Free labour – we pass the slavings on to you!
The Saudis have enough money, they should pay you € 2.00 per liter to take it.
Also, be very careful what you write here. The Saudis might lure you to Galway and take you in an ally and cut you up in little pieces.
How much is a chicken fillet roll?
If I was going to a backwards shithole for cheap petrol I’d go to Cavan.

I’d like to be around in 100 years to see what happens when their oil runs out. And why it’s not free for the locals is anyones guess.

I wonder where they get it from

So swings and roundabouts I suppose.
Ireland is 11th most expensive, surrounded by much larger counties. https://www.globalpetrolprices.com/diesel_prices/
