The government has raised the diesel subsidy by 30 satang to 5.40 baht a litre.
Energy Minister Wannarat Channukul said after chairing the National Energy Policy Committee meeting yesterday that the subsidy has been increased to comply with the government's policy of keeping the retail diesel price at 30 baht a litre.
He said the increase would cost the state Oil Fund 348 million baht a day or 10.4 billion baht a month.
Heightened violence in the Middle East and signs of economic recovery in the US have pushed up oil prices.
Diesel oil in Singapore was quoted at an average of US$134 a barrel, while crude oil in Dubai rose to $110 a barrel. That trimmed the retail gross margin of oil traders to 80 satang a litre from a viable level of 1.50 baht.
