Jet-fuel consumption grew 15.9 percent last year, making it the only fuel whose demand rose in the period as high prices choked demand for super, diesel and kerosene.

Official data from the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (Epra) says jets and choppers used 746,718.81 cubic metres of jet fuel compared to 644,234.97 cubic metres in 2021.
