My bargaining skills were a bit dull today.
Sweeney quoted 325 for 500L
Corrib 320 (.64 per L)
I got the latter down another 20 quid as we order from them a good bit.

Sorry, i was going by this calulation, and i forgot to stick the vat into it

"This is the way I work the latest price out is which is open to correction.

Latest Barrel price is $124.81 / 1.58 exchange rate=78.99cent + 13.5% vat =.8965cent per litre, which Emo's website is showing at .8904 therefore I would think there prices are pretty ok, however if the US barrel price keep increasing and it will, by using the above pattern you can see it will get more expensive for us oil users."

The raw product – crude oil - must be searched for beneath the surface of the Earth, extracted, transported across oceans, refined into kerosene and other products which are then freighted to Ireland, stored and delivered locally. Then duties and taxes and charges are added plus a margin for the distributors

Well if you use that calulation:

todays crude oil price is $73.78 at the moment
That €52.77
100 litres in a barrel = 0.5277 a litre
Add 13.5% VAT = 0.5989 cent a litre

That works out at pretty much the same as the 500 litres previuos poster got for 300 euro .

And it work out the same for me a while back when i got my fill.

Sweeney Oil 320Euro for 500L. Anyone got anything better?

gaillimhabu

Oil gone again. 500 litres gone in 2 months. Damn cold spell

Anyone know who's offering the best deal this weather?

thegrayson

Mor Oil, 500L, €295.

snubbleste

Don't forget the carbon tax kicks in May 1st adding another 4.3c per litre on Kerosene and 4.6c per litre on Gas oil

Around an extra €26 on 500l

biko

Soon, well, that time of year again folks. Did anyone get kerosene lately?
Am about to start ringing the places to see if I can get a better deal before it gets freezing.

Fey!

Biko; when you ring around, will you please put the quotes you got from the various companies up here.

biko

Will do aye.

I was down south last week and saw petrol going for €1.26 per litre in several places around Charleville (or therabouts). In Galway, prices seemed fixed at around €1.32.:mad:

Don't count on Galway oil companies for good value, whether for petrol or kerosene.

Texoil Galway online calculator says 1000l of kerosene is €670. This graph shows the price for the last year

snaps

That graph proves what i said to my neighbour the other day, that i only paid 49c a litre this time last year when i filled the tank up. I wont be getting oil this year until i really need to. I got a quote about 3 weeks ago of 72c/l!!!

That graph tells me one thing, when you compare the trend to my graph attached, when the price of oil goes up, the oil companies up the price of heating oil, but forget to bring it back down again ...

It's that time of year again (unfortunately) when I need to start making my usual round of phonecalls to the 'cartel' to check out oil prices. Anyone got any recent info for me which might help me out?

Wonder how that compares to the rest of the cartel in Galway

Dr McManus

Having rung round for quotes for my oil; I have found Corrib Oil to be the cheapest.
They were willing to beat my cheapest quote on 500 litres.

Fey!

Citybin are now doing oil, too; I got a flyer in my door about it this morning.

gaeilgegrinds1

72 c over phone and 70.5 c done online, plus half off price of next bill, is that good? City Bin that is.

gaeilgegrinds1

Sorry Biko, just read your post there! Are they competitive?
