One of Hungary’s biggest petrol station chains introduces serious restrictions
Change language:
Shell, one of Hungary’s largest petrol station chains, has introduced restrictions. The company announced the restrictions citing reduced supplier capacity.
You can buy petrol at Shell stations for a maximum of HUF 20,000 (EUR 48.9) and diesel for HUF 50,000 (EUR 122.23). According to Infostart, Shell announced the restriction citing “reduced supplier capacity in recent days”.
From 25 November 2022, Shell Hungary Zrt. will offer a maximum of HUF 20,000 gross of Shell FuelSave 95 petrol and HUF 50,000 gross of Shell FuelSave Diesel fuel per refuelling in its network of service stations. Some priority service stations, such as those along motorways, are exempted from the measure.
Small petrol stations have already been notified
MOL, the Hungarian oil company, had previously informed the smaller, family-owned petrol stations about some negative prospects. They said that in the interests of the country’s operations and energy security, they would be unable to provide them with diesel or petrol again from Monday 28 November.
