Data from FuelWatch NI shows average prices in the Enniskillen area have risen to around 152.5p per litre for petrol and 166.4p per litre for diesel, with diesel continuing to place the greatest pressure on drivers and businesses.
Data from Wednesday, August 5 show some retailers in Enniskillen selling petrol at 155.7p and diesel at 173.7p.
In April costs rose sharply, with diesel nearly reaching £2 per litre as a result of the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.
Peace-deals and a ceasefire between the USA and Iran saw the price reduce again throughout the summer.
The latest increases reflect the resumption of strikes in Iran and the Middle East.
