The UAE’s Ministry of Energy first began setting UAE fuel prices based on global prices from other parts of the work since August 2015 – before that UAE residents were in a golden age of fuel costs which were lower than the vast majority of countries, as they were shielded by a government subsidy that didn’t factor global fluctuations into local petrol costs.
