Zero Waste Advocates Why Weekly Oil Price Adjustments Could Lead to Cart
Cartelization

The Consequences of Unchecked Power

In recent years, oil price companies have been implementing weekly price ad
adjustments based on global oil movements. While this system may seem like 
a way to ensure fair prices, some experts warn that it could actually lead 
to cartelization in the highly concentrated petroleum market.

The Concerns A Threat to Competition

Marikina Rep. Romero Quimbo recently raised concerns about the impact of th
these weekly price adjustments at a House LEAD supercommittee hearing. He q
questioned Socioeconomic Planning Secretary Arsenio Balisacan, who expresse
expressed concerns that the Department of Energy's (DOE) synchronized prici
pricing system may be weakening competition instead of promoting it.

The Risks A Path to Cartelization

Balisacan explained that in economics 101, when there are very few players 
in a market, and you ask these players to cooperate or coordinate, they are
are actually asking for cartel-like behavior. He noted that the industry is
is highly concentrated, with only a few big players, making it easier to co
coordinate.

The Dangers Higher Prices and Reduced Competition

Quimbo warned that this system may be producing exactly what Balisacan was 
referring to - cartelization promoted by the government itself. He pointed 
out that while cooperation may seem like a good idea, it could actually lea
lead to elimination of competition and higher prices for consumers.

A Call to Action Promoting Fair Competition

As zero waste advocates, we must decry any system that promotes cartelizati
cartelization in the highly concentrated petroleum market. Instead, we shou
should be working towards promoting fair competition and transparency in th
the oil industry.
