UAE fuel prices for February 2026 were announced on January 31 by the Fuel Prices Monitoring Committee. The Ministry of Energy sets costs each month based on the average global rate of oil, whether up or down, after adding the operating costs of distribution companies. 

This time, prices edged lower, meaning most drivers in the UAE will pay a little less to fill up than they did in January.

Official Petrol Prices: February vs January 2026

All three petrol categories are cheaper in February.

Full Tank Costs by Vehicle Type Compact cars (51 litres)

Sedans (62 litres)

SUVs (74 litres)

Depending on vehicle size and fuel type, a full tank in February costs between AED 4.08 and AEDn7.4 less than in January.

February Rates Cut

The February price drop for Super 98 and Special 95 fuels provides drivers who need to travel longer distances with a small reduction in their total operating expenses. The ongoing fuel price changes follow global oil market movements, which result in small monthly price decreases that accumulate over time as high-mileage drivers and people who use their cars for work and family activities will experience greater savings.

What this Means for Everyday Drivers

The drop in UAE fuel prices results in moderate savings for daily commuters who operate multiple vehicles with their household members. The fuel expense reduction does not create instant monthly budget changes, but it decreases fuel costs for routine driving activities, including school transportation and extended trips.
