As Jordanians await the official announcement of fuel prices for April, Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources, Dr. Saleh Al-Kharabsheh, revealed a set of government measures aimed at cushioning the impact of global energy price fluctuations and ensuring local market stability.
Managing reserves to ease price pressure

Proactive economic stability measures
The measures reflect a proactive government approach linking strategic reserve management with reinforced energy supplies, aiming to maintain market calm and preserve citizens’ purchasing power amid exceptional regional conditions.
