Abaqhubi beemoto baya kuhlawulela ngaphezulu amafutha ukusuka ngoLwesibini ebusuku. ISebe leMithombo yeziMbiwa naMandla liqinisekisile ukuba ixabiso lamanqanaba omabini epetroli lizakunyuka nge-75 yeesenti ilitha. Ixabiso le-diesel lizakunyuka phakathi kwe-70 kunye ne-75 yeesenti ilitha ngelixa iparafini elayitayo inyuka nge-71 yeesenti ilitha nganye kwinqanaba lentengiso.
Isebe libalele ukunyuka kwamva nje kuxinzelelo lwangoku lwemo yelizwe kuMbindi Mpuma oluchaphazela ukuthuthwa kwe-oyile kunye nokuncipha kwexabiso lokutshintshiselana ngerandi/nedola.
Imozulu ebanda kakhulu eUnited States ikwadweliswe phakathi kwezizathu zokunyuka kwamaxabiso epetroli kutsha nje.
ISebe leMithombo yeziMbiwa kunye naMandla (DMRE) lithi le mveliso inefuthe, ebangele ukutsalwa kwe-inventory ngaphezu kokulindelwe. Isebe likhupha amaxabiso epetroli ahlengahlengisiweyo ngenyanga.
La maxabiso asekelwa yimiba yamazwe ngamazwe neyasekhaya kuba uMzantsi Afrika ungenisa zombini i-oli ekrwada kunye neemveliso ezigqityiweyo ngexabiso elibekwe kumgangatho wamazwe ngamazwe, kuquka neendleko zokungeniswa kwamanye amazwe.
“Izizathu zoku kunyuka kwamaxabiso e-oyile ngenxa yohlaselo kwimithwalo yeoli kuLwandle oluBomvu kunye nemozulu ebandayo echaphazele ukuveliswa kwe-oli e-USA ngexesha lokuhlolwa. Irandi yehla xa ithelekiswa nedola yaseMelika kwangelo xesha linye. Ngokuhambelana nokubonelela ngemithetho elungelelanisiweyo yerhafu yepetroli, le layibhile yakade yepetroli nedizili izakuhlala iku zero senti ilitha ukusuka nge-7 kaFebruwari 2024, utshilo isithethi seDMRE uRobert Maake.
Abahlalutyi beemarike bathi i-geopolitics inokuba ngumba wokunyuka kwamaxabiso epetroli, nangona kunjalo, oku akukhathazi kakhulu.
“Icala le-geopolitics kuyo, ndicinga ukuba kufuneka sibe ngamanqanaba afanayo xa izinto zaqala ukuvela kunyaka ophelileyo. Ngoko, ngokuqinisekileyo ngumba. Kodwa ndicinga ukuba izinto onokuthi uzijonge, udlala indima engakumbi ngoku kuhlobo lokutyhala ioyile ukuya phezulu okwangoku yinyani yokuba kukho iinkxalabo. Ngokumalunga nokukhula kwehlabathi kwaye ngakumbi ujikeleze enye i-hawkish. Ukusuka kwibhidi kunye nonikezelo olubuyela e-US, zombini ezi zinto ziza kubeka uhlobo lokudambisa kumaxabiso eoyile, utshilo uMartin Smith, umphathi wepotfoliyo kwi-Anchor Capital.
I-DMRE ithi akusayi kubakho rhafu yesileyiti iphunyeziweyo kulwakhiwo lwamaxabiso epetroli nedizili ngoFebruwari. Ithi oku kubangelwe kukuqokelelwa kwebhalansi yesileyiti kwipetroli nedizili ekupheleni kukaDisemba wonyaka ophelileyo ebenebhalansi encumisayo ye-1. 1 yesigidi.
Ngaphandle kokunyuka kwepetroli yamva nje, ukunyuka kwamaxabiso kulindeleke ukuba kuqhubeke ukuhla kweendlela kwiinyanga ezizayo. Kwaye imarike sele ixabisa amaxabiso ekunciphiseni izinga kamva kulo nyaka.
