Saudi Aramco Announces Review of Gasoline Prices for Q1 of 2019

Saudi Arabia's Aramco announced Friday cutting the local price for Octane 95 gasoline to 2.02 riyal per liter.

The change goes into effect on January 12 until March 2019, the company said in a statement.

Petrol price (91) will rest at 1.37 SR per liter for the same period.

This is in accordance with the governance procedures for the adjustment of prices of energy and water products approved by the government.

Local prices of gasoline are subject to change, depending on the changes in the prices of the Kingdom's exports to international markets.

Morocco received a record 17.4 million tourists in 2024, up 20% compared with previous year, with Moroccans living abroad accounting for nearly half the total, the tourism ministry said on Thursday.
Tourism accounts for about 7% of the North African country's gross domestic product and is a key source of jobs and foreign currency, Reuters reported.
The number of arrivals this year was two years ahead of target, the ministry said in a statement. It expects Morocco to receive 26 million tourists by 2030, when the country co-hosts the World Cup, together with Spain and Portugal.
Morocco has opened additional air routes to key tourist markets, while promoting new destinations within the country and encouraging the renovation of hotels.
From January to November, tourism revenue rose 7.2% to a record 104 billion dirhams, according to Morocco's foreign exchange regulator.
