BANGKOK — 4 March 2026, PTT Public Company Limited and PTT Oil and Retail Business Public Company Limited (OR) have agreed to freeze diesel and gasohol prices for 15 days starting 4 March at all PTT Station outlets nationwide, while requesting motorists to temporarily refrain from filling fuel into gallon containers or other portable vessels. While the Prime Minister’s directive focused on capping diesel at 29.94 baht per litre, PTT’s announcement extended the 15-day freeze to include gasohol, broadening the scope of price stabilisation measures. The measure is intended to help ease household energy costs in line with the government’s policy direction, while ensuring fuel supplies remain sufficient and evenly distributed amid global supply constraints. Fuel services for cars, trucks and commercial vehicles will continue as normal, and all promotions and customer benefits remain available. PTT said the price freeze is a short-term measure undertaken in cooperation with OR, reflecting support for government efforts to ease living costs. The company added that its business fundamentals remain strong and that it continues to balance commercial returns with social responsibility as part of its long-term sustainability strategy.
