Get Ready! Petrol, Diesel Prices Set To Go Up Sharply

Get ready to pay more for petrol and diesel when their prices are revised later this month. Oil marketing companies are likely to revise their prices sharply higher, following a jump in global oil prices.

Global oil prices have jumped to over one-year highs of around $53 a barrel on growing expectations of an output cut by major oil producers. Oil prices firmed up after Russia said it was ready to join the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) in limiting crude output and Algeria called for similar commitments from other non-OPEC producers.

Global oil prices have gained almost 15 per cent since OPEC provisionally agreed last month to cut production for the first time in eight years. (more…)

The limestone abyss, known as Hranická Propast, is mapped to be 1,325 feet (404 meters) deep. Italy’s Pozzo del Merro, which was considered to be the deepest cave previously, is about 39 feet (12 m) shorter than the Propast.

Explorations began in 1999 when Polish diver Krzysztof Starnawski discovered the Propast for the first time. In order to find the exact depth of the cave, he’s led a Czech-Polish expedition the past two years, supported by a grant from the National Geographic, to map the full length using remotely operated underwater vehicles.
