COThe Colombian government announced on August 29, 2026, that it will keep the reference prices of gasoline and ACPM unchanged throughout September as part of a measure to support families, especially those affected by the earthquake on August 10. The decision was made jointly by the Ministry of Finance and Credit Public and the Ministry of Mines and Energy. The move aims to alleviate financial burdens on households and prevent increased fuel costs from raising transportation expenses for essential goods. It also facilitates the movement of rescue teams and humanitarian aid to disaster-affected areas. The ministry emphasized that this measure is possible due to current market conditions and will be monitored through price indicators at service stations across the country.
