Doha – Mubasher: Qatar Petroleum set its onshore oil prices at $28.85 per barrel and off-shore oil prices at $25.3 pb during January 2015.
Qatari onshore oil prices reached $36.15 pb, while off-shore oil prices came to $32.65 pb in the same month.
Qatar earlier decided to raise fuel prices 30% as the country’s budget was under pressure of the falling oil prices.
The government said last December that it expects a budget deficit of QAR 46.5 billion in 2016, the first deficit since 15 years.
