Gasoline rose by almost UAH 4 during the working week — comparison of prices at gas stations

Retail fuel prices in Ukraine continued to rise on September 18. A-92 gasoline rose the most over the past day — by UAH 1.63/l, while A-95 added 67 kopecks and diesel – 44 kopecks. Over the working week, regular A-95 became more expensive by almost UAH 4/l.

This is evidenced by data from the daily monitoring of the Consulting Group "A-95".

The average price of A-95 in the country rose to UAH 88.99/l on September 18, A-95+ — to UAH 92.64/l. Diesel fuel already costs UAH 98.68/l — 1.32 UAH remains to the psychological mark of UAH 100.

Autogas, against the backdrop of significantly stronger rise in gasoline and diesel prices, has hardly changed: over the day it added only 3 kopecks and costs on average UAH 44.09/l.

Average fuel prices in Ukraine

Gasoline added almost UAH 4 since the beginning of the week

By the end of the working week, the scale of the latest wave of price increases is clearly visible. Compared with the levels of September 14, the average price of A-95 rose from UAH 85.01 to 88.99/l — by UAH 3.98.

A-95+ over the same period rose by UAH 3.76 — from 88.88 to 92.64 UAH/l, and A-92 — by UAH 3.67, from 80.59 to 84.26 UAH/l.

Diesel, which at the beginning of the week rose especially quickly, added UAH 2.74 over five days: on Monday its average price was UAH 95.94/l, and on Friday — already UAH 98.68/l. Autogas over the same period rose much more moderately — by 58 kopecks, to UAH 44.09/l.

Thus, over the week, the nature of the price increase changed somewhat. On Monday and Tuesday, the main attention was focused on diesel, which quickly approached UAH 100/l in the largest networks. On Wednesday and Thursday, gasoline began to rise faster, and on Friday, the largest daily jump was shown by A-92.

SOCAR has become the leader in gasoline prices

Among the eight largest operators on September 18, SOCAR and UKRNAFTA revised gasoline price tags most noticeably.

SOCAR raised A-95 and A-95+ immediately by UAH 2/l — to UAH 93.90 and 96.90/l respectively. After that, SOCAR has the highest average prices for both types of gasoline among the top-8, surpassing WOG.

UKRNAFTA also raised A-95 by UAH 2 — to UAH 86.90/l, and diesel immediately by UAH 2 — to UAH 97.90/l. At the same time, A-95+ in the network, on the contrary, fell by one hryvnia and now also costs on average UAH 86.90/l.

OKKO added on average about 86 kopecks to A-95 and A-95+, which cost UAH 92.76 and 95.76/l respectively. Diesel remained at UAH 99.90/l.

At BRSM-Nafta, A-95 rose by about 91 kopecks, to UAH 85.49/l, diesel — by UAH 1.09, to UAH 96.63/l. Autogas added about 12 kopecks, but the network still has one of the lowest prices among large operators — UAH 42.66/l.

KLO raised A-95 by 50 kopecks, A-95+ by UAH 1.40, and diesel by 40 kopecks, to UAH 99.80/l. WOG, UPG and AMIC did not change main price tags this time.

At Neftek, diesel already costs UAH 100

Outside the top-8, there were also noticeable changes. At Neftek, the average price of diesel fuel reached exactly UAH 100/l, although over the past day it rose by only 1 kopeck. A-95 in the network added UAH 1.01 and costs UAH 92/l, A-95+ — UAH 95/l.

Grand Petrol raised A-95+ immediately by UAH 3, to UAH 94.90/l, regular A-95 — by UAH 2, to UAH 90.90/l, and diesel — by one hryvnia, to UAH 98.90/l.

At Mango, A-95 rose by UAH 2, to UAH 87.49/l, and diesel — by UAH 1.50, to UAH 98.49/l. At the same time, VostokGaz has gone against the market: A-95 and diesel in the network fell immediately by UAH 2, to UAH 83.99 and 94.99/l respectively, and autogas — by one hryvnia, to UAH 42.99/l.

In the largest networks, the psychological mark of UAH 100 for diesel has not yet been overcome: OKKO, WOG, UPG and SOCAR keep the average price at UAH 99.90/l, and KLO — at UAH 99.80/l.
