The Institute for Energy Security is advising the government to pause the Price Stabilisation and Recovery Levy.
This call comes as global oil prices continue to climb higher.
The institute believes suspending the levy will lessen the financial strain on consumers.
Rising fuel costs are making it harder for many people to afford transportation and other essentials.
The government has not yet responded to the request.
Further details on the impact of global oil prices were not immediately specified by the institute.
