Daily network average, petrol and diesel
Murco was Murphy Oil's British retail arm until the company sold its UK refining and marketing business. The brand survived the sale and now sits on a network of independently owned forecourts supplied by Certas Energy.
The estate skews towards smaller sites: village forecourts, high-street stations, and single-site operators rather than large trunk-road stops. Those sites carry high fixed costs across low volumes, which tends to put prices above the supermarkets.
What Murco offers is coverage. In parts of rural Wales, the South West and the Midlands, a Murco forecourt is the fuel that exists — and the relevant comparison is not against a supermarket forty minutes away but against driving there and back.
Sites by UK region, with the local median price
Coverage explains a good deal of what looks like brand pricing. Fuel is cheaper in some regions than others whatever the sign says, so a chain weighted towards the cheaper ones shows a lower national average without any of its sites pricing unusually.
Murco is averaging £1.70 a litre for E10 petrol across 168 UK forecourts — £93.39 for a 55-litre tank. The cheapest Murco forecourt in the country is currently £1.55.
Murco is 0.1p below the UK median of £1.70, which places it 16th of 29 ranked brands. Above the supermarkets on average, reflecting a network of smaller, lower-volume sites.
170 Murco forecourts are in our data, of which 168 are currently quoting a price, spread across 10 of the twelve UK regions.
Murco has no national loyalty scheme, so the price on the sign is the price you pay.
Murco sites generally sell standard E10 petrol and B7 diesel, though some also stock super unleaded, averaging £1.83.
