After several weeks of declining oil prices, a reduction in fuel prices is expected to be applied in the coming days in Morocco, offering a slight respite to consumers. However, this relief may not last long, as tensions in the global energy market persist.
The price of Brent crude oil has fallen from over $90 per barrel in early April to around $85 per barrel as of April 30, 2026, according to data from the International Energy Agency. This decline is attributed to increased supply from OPEC+ and weaker demand from major economies.
In Morocco, fuel prices are adjusted monthly based on international market trends. The government has not yet announced the exact percentage of the reduction, but analysts expect a decrease of 2-3% for gasoline and diesel.
Despite the short-term relief, experts warn that geopolitical risks and potential supply disruptions could reverse the trend. The Moroccan government continues to monitor the situation and may consider further measures to stabilize prices.
