In the case of international oil prices this week (4-7), Dubai oil, which is based on crude oil imported into Korea, rose 1.7 dollars from the previous week to 52.8 dollars per barrel. The fluctuations in international oil prices are usually reflected in the prices of domestic gas stations after two weeks.
The Korea Petroleum Corporation analyzed that “oil prices were on the rise due to expectations of additional stimulus measures from the United States, a decrease in US crude oil stocks, and Saudi Arabia’s agreement to cut production in February and March.”
In addition, the average selling price of diesel at domestic gas stations was 1230.9 won per liter, up 16.7 won from the previous week.
This week’s highest priced brand was GS Caltex, with a diesel sales price of 1240.9 won per liter, and the lowest priced brand at an affordable gas station, with a diesel sales price of 1193.0 won per liter.
