Last Update:

The downstream fuel sector in France is liberal and privatized. However, oil companies are in a oligopolistic position.

An official, governmental website offers a complete and up-to-date database of any fuel price at any gas station in the country (http://www.prix-carburants.gouv.fr). Customers can very easily find the cheapest fuel retailer in their region. Values are updated daily, as fuel retailers are forced to transfer their fuel prices to the government daily. This powerful fuel price monitoring implicated a high price pressure on the whole market. Retailers margins (including transport, storage, retailing...) are low compared to other EU-countries. However, taxation is one of the highest worldwide.

More detailed information concerning fuel pricing can be found on the ministries website at http://www.developpement-durable.gouv.fr.

Europe-wide fuel price statistics can be found at http://epp.eurostat.ec.europa.eu/.
