Before you order
These are past prices. Oil suppliers change their prices often, so check today's prices on the Dublin price page and ask the oil supplier for the delivered total before you order. Nobody can promise where prices go next.
The increase in carbon tax on kerosene was postponed until 14 October 2026. Our carbon tax explainer shows what carbon tax adds to a fill, and the Fuel Allowance guide covers help with heating costs this winter.
