Why Oman pays this much

State-subsidized

Oman is a major oil producer and holds pump prices far below the world market through subsidies.

Where the money goes

An estimated split of a $2.35 gallon in Oman. Crude oil trades as one global price, so the part that differs between countries is mostly tax.

ComponentPer gallonPer litre
Crude$1.41$0.37
Refining$0.37$0.10
Distribution$0.57$0.15
Subsidy (below cost)−$1.15−$0.30
Pump price$2.35$0.62
Drivers here pay less than it costs to get the fuel to them. The government absorbs the difference, so the bar above runs past the pump price.
