Wholesale margin is applied per litre or as a percentage.
Statutory levies and taxes (General Fuel Levy, RAF levy, VAT) are passed through at cost.
Client tools
We provide a one‑page price breakdown, monthly variance reports and an Excel quote workbook with grid lookup so clients see exactly which component moved and why.
Pre‑qualification: Licence and terminal checks before onboarding.
Transparency: Sample COC/COD/BOL packages and test certificates available on request.
Rapid response: Dedicated compliance team for incident handling and reporting.
Documentation: Electronic and printed lift packs for audit readiness.
Product is lifted only at DMRE‑licensed gantries and accredited depot terminals that meet statutory storage, dispensing, and safety requirements. Each gantry is operated under documented site procedures and audited carrier access controls.
All lifts use calibrated flow meters, tamper‑evident seals, batch numbers and retained sample bottles to guarantee volumetric accuracy and product integrity. Samples are logged, labelled, and stored under chain‑of‑custody conditions for independent testing.
At the gantry, PETROZAENERGY issues a complete lift pack including COC (Certificate of Conformity), COD (Certificate of Delivery), BOL (Bill of Lading), commercial invoice, and sampling report. Drivers and carriers must present valid permits, HAZMAT documentation, and identity verification before release.
Every vehicle is weighed on certified weighbridges and inspected for seals, tank integrity and HAZMAT compliance prior to departure. GPS telematics record lift time, location and route for audit and client visibility.

Basic Fuel Price (BFP) is calculated from international crude, freight, insurance and import parity and is the primary driver of domestic fuel cost; South Africa’s mechanism averages prior‑period international costs so domestic prices typically lag global markets by about one month.
Diesel wholesale is the BFP plus inland transport, terminal handling and a wholesale margin; retail pump price adds site costs, retail margin and statutory levies (General Fuel Levy, Road Accident Fund levy, VAT)
South African fuel prices are the sum of an internationally driven Basic Fuel Price (import parity) plus local costs and government levies — wholesale diesel reflects import and refinery allocation costs, pump prices add retail margins and distribution, and imported fuel prices feed directly into the Basic Fuel Price which typically lags global markets by about one month .
Key considerations: international crude price, Rand exchange rate, shipping & insurance, refinery allocations (Natref/Secunda), transport/handling, wholesale margins, retail margins, and government levies (General Fuel Levy, Road Accident Fund, VAT, excise where applicable)
Crude price swings and geopolitical events change the import parity quickly; South Africa’s pricing mechanism averages prior period international costs so domestic prices lag but still reflect global volatility.
Exchange rate moves amplify imported cost changes — a weaker Rand raises the Rand‑denominated BFP even if crude is stable.
Major levies: General Fuel Levy, Road Accident Fund levy, VAT on the final pump price; excise elements apply in specific cases. Government adjustments (temporary reductions or increases) can materially change pump prices independent of wholesale movements. Recent temporary levy reliefs have moderated headline increases but volatility remains

Primary regulators: DMRE (licensing, fuel price adjustments), SARS/Excise (levies & excise duties), Information Regulator (POPIA), SABS/DFFE (quality & environmental standards), and law‑enforcement/prosecution (SAPS/NPA) for criminal matters. DMRE sets the Basic Fuel Price framework used in monthly adjustments.
Why it matters: Fuel price = Basic Fuel Price (import parity) + transport/handling + wholesale margin + statutory levies (General Fuel Levy, RAF) + VAT. SARS administers excise and levy rules.
