AUGUSTA - Maine's heating oil prices have gone up another 7 cents per gallon.
The state energy office says the average cash price for home heating oil rose last week to $3.35 per gallon during the same period that crude oil prices topped $100 a barrel for the first time before receding.
Likewise, kerosene prices were up by 8 cents, to $3.75 per gallon. But propane was actually down by a penny a gallon, to $2.94.
The Maine Office of Energy Independence says heating oil has set a record for the third straight week in the state. It says heating oil and kerosene prices are $1.09 per gallon higher than at the same time last year.
