The retail prices of diesel have been reduced by Dubai oil retailers Emirates National Oil Company (Enoc), Emirates Petroleum Products Company (Eppco) and Emarat by Dh0.60 per gallon, following the steep fall in global oil prices, a report said.

'The price of diesel at the pumps in Dubai has come down to Dh13.95 per gallon from Dh14.55 a gallon,' a pump attendant at one Emarat station, was quoted as saying in the Gulf News report.

This is the tenth straight cut in diesel prices since July 28, when diesel was selling at Dh19.25 a gallon.
