    taxes

    Dapat mas mura diesel coz diesel is easier to refine than gasoline

    Pero ultra low sulfur diesel is more costly to refine than ordinary diesel

    while diesel is comparatively cheaper to refine than gasoline,
    the bottomline is, the various petroleum refined products all come from crude oil. in the process of refining, the various components of crude oil are all going to come out, whether they like it or not.
    aviation fuel, petroleum gas, diesel, gasoline, bunker fuel, tar, etc...
    even if the refiner's interest is on gasoline alone, the refiner still has to "do something with the other components".
    how much they want to sell each component, depends on them. but the bottom requirement is, the cost of crude oil and its refining costs, should be covered.
    jut can probably provide a better answer/explanation.

    refiners don't always make money

    they are price takers not price setters

    they do not have control over the price of refined products (mas lalo wala sila control over the price of crude oil)

    those prices are determined by the market

    refiners have this thing called crack spread

    it's the spread between the price of crude and the price of refined products

    they make money when the spread is positive but there are times the spread falls to zero and even negative

    for example:

    ang tanong: malakas ba demand ng light distillates para tumaas ang gaso?

    Dapat na talaga paspasan ng govertment yung UNBUNDLING. Brashohin na. Maglagay ng judge na papabor.

    Si petrogazz 41 ang gaso pero yung desel nya 37. Just 4pesos difference. Pero si big 3, mid-oil and new oil around 49 to 55 gaso. Malaki dieperensya.

    Ito si petrogazz eh pumasok ka ng true quezon city at mang-gulo ka dito.
