How Much Does Diesel Supply in Dubai Cost? Bulk 10 PPM Diesel Pricing Explained

October 10, 2026 Bhaskar Pandit 6 min read

Summary

  • The UAE pump price for diesel is AED 4.80 per liter in October 2026.
  • Treat that figure as a market reference. Bulk 10 PPM diesel is quoted per order.
  • Quotes reflect the market on the day they are issued, so they carry short validity.
  • Ojas’s minimum order is 13,000 IG, approximately 59,100 liters.
  • Payment is Upfront, Cash on Delivery, or Bank Transfer on Delivery Before Offloading.

The UAE retail diesel price is AED 4.80 per liter for October 2026, up from AED 4.30 in September. 

If you buy in bulk, that figure is a market reference, not a quote. Bulk 10 PPM Ultra-Low-Sulphur Diesel (EN 590) is priced per order.

Month Retail diesel (AED per liter)
September 2026 4.30
October 2026 4.80

The pump price is still worth a look. It shows which way the market is moving before you ask for a quotation. A jump of AED 0.50 in a single month is a good reason to plan early. Bulk quotations follow the same direction.

What Is the Price of Bulk Diesel in the UAE?

There is no fixed public price for bulk 10 PPM Ultra-Low-Sulphur Diesel (EN 590). Each quotation is market-linked and issued per order, reflecting product source, delivery location, volume, and agreed commercial terms. 

Because diesel prices move with global markets, the figure you receive reflects the day it was issued. You get a number by sharing your requirements.

Why Does the UAE Diesel Price Change Every Month?

The UAE sets retail fuel prices once a month, reflecting global energy price movements, according to the Emirates News Agency. Bulk offers follow the same market, but they are not tied to that monthly cycle. 

That is why quotes carry short validity. When one arrives, confirm your details promptly.

  • The IEA September 2026 Oil Market Report said US diesel prices passed 200 dollars per barrel in early September.
  • The IEA August 2026 Oil Market Report cited the ongoing closure of the Strait of Hormuz as a driver of elevated fuel prices.
  • Reuters reported on 6 October 2026 that the US EIA raised its oil price forecasts as diesel markets stayed tight.

Here is what that volatility means in practice. The AED 0.50 per liter rise from September to October equals about AED 29,550 on one order of approximately 59,100 liters, and each AED 0.10 change equals about AED 5,910. This is simple arithmetic on the retail price, not an Ojas quote.

What Is the Minimum Order for Bulk Diesel in Dubai?

Ojas’s minimum order is 13,000 Imperial Gallons (IG) per order, approximately 59,100 liters or roughly 49 metric tons of diesel, depending on density. 

The same minimum applies to 10 PPM Ultra-Low-Sulphur Diesel (EN 590) and Marine Diesel Oil (MDO). Smaller volumes fall outside bulk supply.

You can pay in one of three ways. Choose one when you request a quotation.

  • Upfront
  • Cash on Delivery
  • Bank Transfer on Delivery Before Offloading

What Documents Do I Need to Buy Bulk Diesel in the UAE?

Federal Law No. 14 of 2017 requires a licence to trade petroleum products, and buying from an unlicensed person counts as illegal trading. Ask your supplier for a copy of its Trading Permit before you commit. 

Expect a quotation, an invoice, a delivery note, and, on request, a Certificate of Analysis supporting the product specification.

Article 15(2)(b) of the law sets a fine of up to AED 500,000 for knowingly acquiring petroleum products from an unlicensed person. A few minutes spent on supplier checks costs far less than that.

How Do I Order Bulk Diesel in Dubai?

Start by sending your volume, delivery Emirate, timing, and preferred payment term. Ojas checks product availability, issues a market-linked quotation, and coordinates delivery with approved partners. 

The Certificate of Analysis, delivery note, and invoice follow with the order. If your demand repeats, Bulk Supply Planning can structure it as recurring supply.

  1. Confirm your volume meets the minimum.
  2. Share your delivery Emirate and timing.
  3. Choose your payment term.
  4. Review the quotation, then confirm.

FAQs

1. Is bulk diesel priced like pump diesel?

No. Pump prices are set monthly for consumers, while bulk diesel is quoted per order from market-linked offers. A bulk quote reflects product source, volume, delivery location, and agreed commercial terms. Share your requirements and you will receive a figure for your specific order.

2. What are the minimum order and payment terms?

The minimum is 13,000 IG, approximately 59,100 liters, for both products. You can pay Upfront, Cash on Delivery, or by Bank Transfer on Delivery Before Offloading. Tell Ojas your preferred term when you ask for a quotation so the offer reflects it.

3. How do I check that a diesel supplier is licensed?

Federal Law No. 14 of 2017 prohibits trading petroleum products without a licence issued under a Trading Permit. Ask the supplier for a copy of that permit before you order. This protects you, because the law also treats acquiring a product from unlicensed persons as illegal trading.

4. Does Ojas coordinate supply to Europe and Africa?

Yes. Export supply to Europe and Africa is arranged through Import/Export Facilitation, using port gateways such as Jebel Ali and Fujairah. Export orders follow the same 13,000 IG minimum. Share your destination port when you request a quotation so the logistics can be planned around it.

5. Which diesel grades does Ojas coordinate?

Ojas coordinates 10 PPM Ultra-Low-Sulphur Diesel (EN 590), aligned with Euro V, and Marine Diesel Oil (MDO) through Marine Fuel Coordination. A Certificate of Analysis is available on request for supported batches. Both grades follow the same minimum order.
