Engen has introduced temporary fuel surcharges, but these measures will not impact motorists at the pump.
The adjustments apply specifically to certain wholesale, bulk and contracted commercial customers, as the company responds to increased supply costs within the fuel sector.
Importantly, the surcharges do not affect the regulated petrol price in South Africa, meaning retail customers will continue to pay the official pump price without any additional increases linked to this move.

Fuel pricing in the country remains tightly controlled under national regulations, with government maintaining oversight to ensure that any changes fall within the approved framework.
The targeted nature of the surcharges highlights the pressure being experienced within parts of the supply chain, particularly in commercial arrangements, while shielding everyday consumers from direct price changes.
As global oil markets remain volatile, cost pressures continue to filter through the industry, but retail fuel prices remain determined by the regulated structure in place.
