How Much Is a Litre OF Jet A1?
Moderator
I think Sky News this morning suggested Qantas are paying $180 per barrel for JetA1, I assume AUD.
There are 158.987295 liters in a barrel of oil.
You do the sums!
(I suspect QF hedged price would still be far lower than that. I think they took some fairly long term hedge options in 2007.)

A barrel of oil is not equal to a 44 Imp gal/50 US gal/200 liter fuel drum.

If I were to refuel my King Air/PC12/whatever at SYD today, how much is the refueler going to charge me per litre of AVTUR/JetA1 supplied in tanks?

The spelling Nazi in my Word program and in PPRuNe suggests it is "200 liter" not "200 litre". Not something I really don't get excited about!
WhoFlung. On which day? They tell me Tuesday is the cheapest!

Rough calculations to go from the price of a barrel of oil to what it's worth per tonne is to multilply it by 10.
So if the price of a barrel is 145USD, then 1000kgs is about 1450USD.

I would have answered a lot earlier, but the first post said...
And they are paying consierably less than $1-80 per litre that us mere mortals pay!
Any one know what the airlines are paying?
Something like five years or so ago it used to be about US$300 a tonne.
(Don't quote me on that though)
If that's the case then I'd be expecting around US$1,000/tonne (roughly) now.

At AY today I asked the refueller, he advised it is around $2-00 per litre there!
And l pay A$2.65/liTRe for diesel in my car in pommieland.Perhaps l should buy in a container of jeta1 from oz to keep it going? Mind you it does do 59mpg, whatever that is in liTRes/100km!
