Why this matters: For Puerto Rican households and businesses, the increase in fuel prices may impact daily expenses and operations, particularly for those reliant on transportation.

The Department of Consumer Affairs (DACO) released an update on gasoline prices in Puerto Rico, which are fluctuating due to the conflict in the Middle East and disruptions in oil flow through the Strait of Hormuz. As of August 11, regular gasoline prices are expected to range between $0.98 and $1.06 per liter, premium between $1.12 and $1.22, and diesel between $1.25 and $1.34.

The conflict and supply disruptions have driven up fuel prices on the island.
