LPG price trend still bullish:
LPG prices remain bullish but not with a significant price increase. Butane and Propane increased by 1 and 1.7% respectively.

Bullish run continues for Oil Prices
Oil prices seem to be on a bullish trend as Brent Crude closes at 87 USD per barrel well ahead of the previous weeks close. Geopolitical sentiments and recent economic news suggest strong demand from high-consuming countries like India and China. Also, with the sustained production cuts from OPEC+, there are indications that we may see a 90 USD price soon.
The regional Dichotomy in LPG prices continue to close up in Nigeria:
The depot price differential between depots in Lagos and depots in the South-South closed up during the week for the 3rd consecutive week. By Friday the lowest price in Lagos was about 20.5 Million or lower, while at Stockgap, prices fell to 20.3 Million per 20 MT. Factors to look out for are the CBN USD exchange rate which is gradually dropping and Mont Belvieu prices which aren't changing much. We don't see much changes in prices as we enter this new week. But it's important to watch Stockgap depot as the off-takers finish their sell-off from the last NLNG cargo.
LPG Retail Prices:
Retail prices remained relatively stable, selling from 15000 per 12.5kg in Lagos to up to 17000 outside Lagos.
