Fuel Statistics

01Jan10

I enjoy keeping records; they reveal so much, especially over longer periods of time.

Since Sept 2007, Kenya fuel prices per litre have averaged KSh 85.45  (~ 1.13 US$) with a maximum of KSh 108.9  (~ 1.436 US$) and a minimum of KSh 71.9  (~ 0.95 US$). Looks like prices are headed back up, and that means essential commodities will get affected.

There’s several mobile utilities one can use to monitor fuel consumption, but I like Mileage on android.

I have just noted that I spent KSh 144418.12 (~1904 US$) on fuel in 2009…

How much did it cost you to travel last year?

  1. Try doing your calculations now-give yourself a scenario like mine where i spend 500 bob daily on fuel

  2. 2 J

    Now that you mention it, I shall certainly do a new post with current data. 500 bob daily is very possible. That now gives ~4.33 litres of fuel. So if your vehicles average consumption is 10km/l – that would be about 43km. So if you work in town and live in Embakasi you’ll most likely need more than 500.
