Situation Reverses: Major Price Hike Expected Tomorrow

Deep News16:10

The latest alert indicates that at 24:00 tomorrow (August 28), domestic refined oil product prices will undergo a new round of adjustments, with a significant increase expected. Filling up a tank of gas could cost more than 14 yuan extra.

Driven by the sustained rise in international crude oil, the expectation for a price hike has been climbing steadily and has now entered a substantial upward adjustment range. If this trend continues, after this round of price adjustments, 92-octane and 95-octane gasoline will see their 11th increase this year.

According to institutional forecasts, domestic gasoline and diesel prices are expected to rise by 360 yuan per ton, which translates to an increase of 0.28 to 0.30 yuan per liter after conversion. Filling up a 50-liter tank of gasoline is expected to cost an additional 14 to 15 yuan.

Following the price drop on August 14, oil prices in 2026 have completed 16 adjustments, resulting in "1 pause in adjustment, 10 increases, and 5 decreases." However, overall this year, oil prices have still cumulatively increased by 1,345 yuan per ton for gasoline and 1,295 yuan per ton for diesel, with a significant rise of more than 1.03 yuan per liter for both products.
