Mobil hikes, then rolls back prices

Posted on May 13 2009

Mobil Oil Marianas raised its pump prices by 15 cents a gallon on Tuesday morning, only to roll them back yesterday morning.

Gasoline stations yesterday said Mobil hiked its regular, premium and diesel gasoline by 15 cents on Tuesday morning.

However, at 10am yesterday, they were notified of a roll back—meaning the prices went back to their old levels.

Thus, Mobil’s pump prices remain the same as their prices since the previous hike in February.

Mobil’s self-serve regular unleaded gasoline remains at $2.97 a gallon, while super unleaded gasoline is at 3.27 a gallon.

Shell gasoline stations said they have not yet received notice of price change as of 5pm yesterday. Shell’s self-serve regular gasoline is also $2.97 a gallon, while self-serve premium is $3.29 a gallon.
