UAE's fuel retailers intend to introduce a new system whereby motorists will be offered petrol and diesel at discounted rates for self-service.

According to highly placed sources, the plan is currently on the negotiating table and will be implemented once approved by the higher authorities. The scheme will reward customers for using self-service petrol stations.

Currently, 25 fuel stations are offering self-service – but not offering discounted rate – in Dubai on experimental basis.

The operational cost at a self-service fuel station is considerably less than the cost of manned fuel stations.
