At 24:00 tonight, March 18, the price of domestic refined oil products will usher in a new round of price adjustment window.
From the perspective of comprehensive institutions, this round of retail prices may usher in the second unadjusted period in 2024, that is, the oil price is stranded. The car owner will charge about 18.5 yuan more for filling a tank of 50 liters of No. 92 gasoline than at the beginning of the year, while the prices of No. 95 gasoline and No. 0 diesel will remain high.
Since this year, the price of domestic refined oil products has shown an overall upward trend. After the rise and fall offset each other, the cumulative increase of gasoline and diesel reached 475 yuan/ton and 460 yuan/ton respectively.
Specifically, 92 # gasoline, 95 # gasoline and 0 # diesel increased 0.37 yuan, 0.39 yuan and 0.39 yuan per liter, respectively. Compared with the beginning of the year, the cost of residents' driving increased significantly. According to the estimation of relevant institutions, taking the family car with a fuel tank capacity of 50L as an example, the owner will pay about 18.5 yuan extra to fill a tank of 92 # gasoline, and about 19.5 yuan extra to fill a tank of 95 # gasoline.
Therefore, before a new round of price adjustment window opens, car owners need not rush to refuel, because the stranded oil price means that the retail price limit of gasoline and diesel will not change.
According to the calculation data of Jinlianchuang, as of the ninth working day on March 15, the change rate was 0.17%, the average price of reference oil was 80.88 dollars, and the domestic gasoline and diesel should be increased by only 10 yuan/ton. Since there is only one working day left from the price adjustment window, it is expected that the adjustment range will not fluctuate significantly, so the price adjustment window of retail price may not be opened.
In the final stage of the pricing and statistical cycle of refined oil products, the predicted trend of oil prices shows a slight upward trend. This is mainly due to the fact that the International Energy Administration has raised its oil demand growth forecast for this year and lowered the supply outlook of non OPEC countries. In addition, the month on month decline of US commercial crude oil inventory and gasoline inventory last week exceeded expectations, indicating the recovery of US consumer demand; At the same time, the slight decline of the dollar index has also provided impetus for the rise of international crude oil futures prices. These factors together pushed the comprehensive crude oil variety change rate into a positive range, indicating the rising trend of oil prices.
