Gasoline average 13.3 won per liter↑, diesel 4.4 won↑

(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Lim Ki-chang = This week, the weekly average selling prices of gasoline and diesel at domestic gas stations continued to rise.

According to Korea National Oil Corporation’s oil price information system Offinet on the 27th, the average selling price of gasoline at gas stations nationwide in the fourth week of April (21st to 25th) was 1,708.4 won per liter, up 13.3 won from the previous week.

On a weekly basis, it has risen for five consecutive weeks since the upward turn in the fourth week of March.

By region, Seoul, with the highest price, rose 10.2 won from the previous week to 1,779.6 won, and Daegu, with the lowest price, rose 14.5 won to 1,679.8 won.

The brand with the lowest price was Thrifty Gas Station, with an average price of 1,682.5 won per liter.

The average selling price of diesel rose 4.4 won per liter to 1,566.7 won.

Diesel sales prices have risen for four consecutive weeks since the first week of April.

International oil prices fell this week due to declining concerns over war escalation in the Middle East and the prospect of a delayed base interest rate cut by the U.S. Federal Reserve.

Dubai oil, the standard for imported crude oil prices, was $88.1 per barrel, down $0.9 from the previous week.

The international gasoline price decreased by $2.1 to $100.6, and the international automobile diesel price decreased by $2.3 to $101.9.

Changes in international oil prices are usually reflected in domestic gas station prices after about two weeks.

An official from the Korea Petroleum Association predicted, “As international gasoline and diesel prices and the exchange rate fell together this week, the domestic price increase will continue weakly until next week and then turn to a downward trend in the second week of May.”
