****ed if I know, the pricing has got major tits. A couple of weeks ago it
was 37 cents around here, and had been for months. Now it's 55.9.

Im with you NODDY
Why the shit has it gone up so much ?it surely isn't tied into Petrol, we
produce it here & AFAIK we sell it to Asia
so we can buy there crap in $2 shops
why does it just move up with no song & dance , Gov say sod all, Taxi
companies are the same & all their fleets would be on it
WTF is going on ??
I'm bloody annoyed getting a conversion at 49c not long ago, now its 65c &
climbing
I worked it out,
Formula A-B=C
67.9-55.5=12.4

Not yet.
When it does, LPG will cease being a viable taxi fuel.

They think they're being ripped off now. If it goes up another 20c, you
won't hear the end of the whinging.

Why does nobody read previous threads on this subject before posting the
same basic question year after year?
The AU LPG price is not set in AU. We use "parity pricing", which means that
the price of LPG in Saudi Arabia is used as the benchmark in AU in the same
way as the Singapore prices are used for crude.
LPG is used extensively in heating in the northern hemisphere as well as in
industrial processing. During the northern hemisphere winter (our summer)
the demand is higher, so the price rises. The colder a northern winter, the
higher the price peak...
Come autumn (northern spring), the LPG demand subsides and the price comes
back down. Of course, the bottom price in spring is always slightly higher
than in the previous spring, but it's still a lot less than the summer peak
price. When this happens depends on when the warm weather kicks in in the
northern hemisphere...

Get use to it
Its around the 50cpl here in Melb. and rising [see below why]
Another item that works on the supply/demand ratio, esp. from
o/seas.Its also traded in US$ so watch the exchange rate.
Will come down as it always does latter in the year.I would say it wont
roll back all that much though, with the traded prices looks like 45cpl
will be price point [Hope i am wrong on this]
Been on the up and up since Sept. last year
For the record it has risen steeply:
JAN 05'
Propane AUS $475 M/Tonne
Butane AUS $484 M/Tonne
JAN 06'
Propane AUS $774 M/Tonne
Butane AUS $787 M/Tonne
Gets Worse still on the UP....
FEB 06'
P AUS$830
B AUS$837
This is rather alarming really...
Anyway less than ULP and Diesel

did I say that ?
what I did say was "where suburbs have
competition & independent operators" which leads to more competitive
pricing
if you live there you have the choice of filling at point A or driving past
50 more servo's to one that has a better price
its called choice Toby

shows a 5c differential in Perth suburbs , Melb/Syd would no doubt show
similar trends

I'm talking about the LPG price, not petrol. :-)
It's been 69.9 in some places locally in the past few weeks. Last summer,
the highest I saw was about 67.9. In between, it got down to 42.9 in winter.

Prove it and the ACCC will sort it out. Oh, you can't prove it...

LOL. Newcastle is _not_ a capital city. The prices here are patchy, just like
in Sydney. Different part of town, different price.

They are, but it's not starting until 2011 and even then, it's ramping up
over time until it's fully implemented in 2015.
All I can say is who knows what will happen between now and then in terms of
hybrid cars and new governments changing policy.

I'm completely aware of the determining factors of LPG pricing and I'm not
posting the same old question/whinge.
I was just pointing out the fact that it varied by 12.4cpl within a couple
of k's.
