Director of consulting group «A-95» Serhii Kuyun on Facebook reported a sharp drop in wholesale petrol prices: wholesale fell by 10 UAH/l to 74,70 UAH/l, and current customs prices stand at 65−66 UAH/l.
Wholesale and customs prices
According to the expert, the fall in wholesale procurement occurred yesterday - by 10 UAH/l to 74,70 UAH/l, while customs prices are now at 65−66 UAH/l. At the same time he noted changes in the dynamics of retail chains.
“The wave has already reached petrol stations (petrol stations) - today national chains are down by one UAH, regional ones began yesterday or the day before. Today the average price is 88 UAH\/l, and if current procurement prices hold, within 2−3 weeks we’ll see 80, and then lower,” he writes.
Diesel and imports in October
Diesel has also improved, although not as radically, and the expert sees the prospect of again seeing less than 100 UAH/l in November. He calls this change promising provided procurement prices stabilise.
In October there was a shortage, which pushed imports by fuel tankers up to over 105 thousand tonnes - the largest figure since autumn 2023. “It’s hard to forecast for November. On the one hand, metallurgical producers and farmers are knocked out; on the other hand there is generator demand and stockpiling,” the expert says.
