Heating oil big drop

    Kerosene down a bit again in the last week, €407 for 1000L in Dublin at the moment.

    FYI, if you move to a 'smart' meter electricity plan, you CAN'T move back to a non-smart plan.

    You don't have to take a 'smart' meter if you don't want one, opt-out is available.

    Buy drinks in 3L or bigger plastic bottles or glass bottles or cartons to avoid the DRS fee.

    Jet fuel and kerosene are similar.

    So until there's a resumption of air travel in a meaningful way, there is little likelihood of any major jump in prices.

    Kero was around €435-440/1000L all summer up until about 1 week ago.

    It's still around that price though some are down about €410/420.

    The ceo of BP said that they don't see oil prices rising in any meaningful way and demand may never recover to pre covid levels.

    So I reckon 1,000 litres of kerosene should stay under €500 for the foreseeable future.

    Remember, this time last year it was €750


  • Registered Users Posts: 340 ✭✭MadDogGreener


    Tougher Oil have 1000L for €409 at the moment (Dublin delivery). And 500L for €209. Havent used them before, but getting a delivery tomorrow.

    And this time 5 months ago it could be bought for under 300 euro per thousand liter's.

    I put in a new boiler ( while I still could) and it’s not burning oil fast enough to order any :P

    ( warmflow if anybody cares)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,817 ✭✭✭Darc19


    And this time 5 months ago it could be bought for under 300 euro per thousand liter's.

    One station in Roscommon went to 29.9c per litre at the pump for about 3 days. So the assertion of under €300 is incorrect for 99% of people.

    Generally the price did not fall under €340 and the carbon tax added €20 to that in May.

    Brent oil prices have stabilized at around $40-$44 since June and no sign of any major jump in prices, so there's no panic to buy and likewise, if you buy today you are unlikely to find that it's €60 cheaper in 2 weeks

    Topped the tank yesterday. €0.49 pl . I thought that was a good deal:)

    new boilers are phenomenally economical - 3 years ago we put a new grant vortex in to replace a 12 year model and oil consumption literally halved and better heat. It will have paid for itself this year.

    You come out with statements in an assertive manner, totally wrong statements but very authoritiatively expressed.

    I simply went back over the thread which anyone can do and then read analyst's reports on the oil market. And I state where the information comes from.

    Quite easy to do. And quite easy to verify.

    Oil Prices will remain subdued for the foreseeable future.

    Check the thread, loads of places in Dublin were delivering for under 35 cent a litre in April.

    35c x 1,000 = €350

    That's €10 more than what I said.

    You claimed "under €300" - but nothing to back it up?

    Best not to mislead people.

    Fill in december, followed by fill in February, followed by fill in April. 30 years old, never gave any trouble, serviced every 2 years. But it was drinking kero. 5 year guarantee for that's worth. Made in NI.

    There you go.

    May I suggest you read the first line of my post about 4 posts up.

    Here it is so that you don't need to scroll your mouse

    "One station in Roscommon went to 29.9c per litre at the pump for about 3 days. So the assertion of under €300 is incorrect for 99% of people."


    Maybe stop digging, the hole is just getting bigger.


    The simple message is that prices are stable and there's little likelihood of any substantial movement up or down in the near future.

    So no need to fill to the brim and also you won't be wishing you waited.

    Ehh, prices just dropped in the last week in Dublin by about 8%.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,817 ✭✭✭Darc19

    Again, you just dig deeper.

    I clearly said average prices have been $40-$44.

    8% (which is probably one supplier catching up with another) is within that 10% movement.

    Capital oil are probably the benchmark. They dropped 4%.

    Their high was €438 in mid August, €427 10 days ago and €407 today

    Their movement in the last 10 days was 4.7% or €20.

    I certainly would not lose sleep over €20 for 1,000 litres of fuel.

    Keep digging. The hole is getting bigger.

    Next door neighbour couldn't use her stove as the new smokeless coal was proving practically impossible to light so she has changed over to oil. She got 1000 litres for €409 from Mr Oil here in Enniscorthy.

    I won't miss the stinking smoke from her chimney.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,360 ✭✭✭Rows Grower


    Prices are steadily dropping for the last month and particularly in the last few days.

    1200L for €444 that's 37¢/L
    Got that in late April.

    37c was the cheapest on cork .. it never dropped below that.

    I don't think that looking back at what was is helping this or any BA thread. Posting current figures is what most people would like to see I'd imagine.

    First of all I dont think you should be resorting to personal abuse regardless of who posted what. Secondly their "spat" has been commented on already and as a result of that they seem to have copped on.

    damn - thought someone said prices were dropping. Prices seem to have gone up a little. Only up by €9 for the fill, by up nonetheless. €406 yesterday for Capital oil and up to €415 today - I'm not going to cry over it as its way better than the past few years and I can remember the days I wouldn't get 500l for that price.
    Taking the 415 and going to be happy with it

    It will be very interesting to see if "BUDGET 2021" announces any increases in the cost of Home Heating Oil under it's Climate Action plan to lower CO2 measures. Of course any planned increases may defer the hike until Spring/Summer 2021 with winter almost upon us. Next Tuesday 13 October 2020 is Budget Day so we should know by then.
