Fuel prices in Morocco have increased as of October 1, 2026, following several adjustments since the start of the summer. The new rates, effective from 11:50 p.m., show that gasoil has increased by MAD 0.80 per liter, while super gasoline has risen by MAD 0.39 per liter. This change brings the indicative price of gasoil to around MAD 15.81 per liter and super gasoline to around MAD 15.33 per liter.
The price increase marks a sharper adjustment for gasoil compared to the previous revision at the beginning of September. At that time, gasoil prices had increased by only MAD 0.06 per liter, while gasoline prices remained unchanged. This recent change reflects ongoing fluctuations in fuel prices, which have seen multiple adjustments since the beginning of the summer.
Gasoil prices had risen by nearly MAD 0.70 per liter in mid-July, followed by an increase of around MAD 1 at the beginning of August. Additional increases occurred during August before the smaller adjustment recorded at the start of September. Gasoline prices followed a similar pattern, with several increases in July and August, a slight fall in mid-August, and stability during the most recent revision before Wednesday’s increase.
The latest increase comes amid international energy markets facing pressure due to persistent tensions, affecting Moroccan pump prices. These global factors contribute to the ongoing changes in fuel prices in Morocco. Different reports provided varying indicative pump prices based on specific stations, but all confirmed the increases of MAD 0.80 for gasoil and MAD 0.39 for super gasoline.
Reports from various sources indicated that gasoil could reach around MAD 16.10 to MAD 16.13 per liter in Casablanca, while super gasoline could reach around MAD 15.58 to MAD 15.59. These differences reflect variations between distributors, locations, and stations. Despite the variations, the increases remain consistent across reports.
The adjustments in fuel prices are part of a broader trend of changes in the energy sector. Morocco, like many countries, is navigating the complexities of international energy markets, which directly impact domestic fuel prices. The government and distributors are working to balance these global influences with local economic conditions.
The fuel price adjustments have implications for consumers and the broader economy. As fuel prices rise, it can affect transportation costs, inflation, and overall economic activity. Stakeholders are monitoring the situation closely, considering the potential impacts on various sectors and households.
