В As a result, the average price for A-95 gasoline at Ukrainian gas stations for the week from July 15 to July 22 increased by UAH 0.05 – to UAH 56.65 per liter, for A-95+ – by UAH 0.08 (to UAH 60.20) UAH/l), and for diesel fuel – by 0.09 UAH (up to 52.91 UAH/l).
At the same time, the average price for A-95 gasoline in the group over the last week increased by 0. 06 UAH – up to 48.63 UAH/l, for diesel fuel – by 0.15 UAH/l, up to 45.63 UAH/l.
Fuel market experts call the increase in the cost of imported fuel the impetus for increasing prices due to changes in exchange rates. Thus, from 15 to the evening of July 22, the dollar exchange rate against the hryvnia increased by 0.24 UAH/$, and from the beginning of the month – by 0.73 UAH/$.
In retail chains, prices increased the most for A-95 gasoline. This type of fuel immediately increased in price by 1 hryvnia per liter in the Poltava networks BVS and Avtotrans, as well as the Kirovograd Ruhr Group – to 56.99 UAH/l, 56.98 UAH/l and 56.49 UAH/l, respectively.
At KLO, Ovis, Chipo and Market stations, prices for gasoline increased by 0.20-0.50 UAH/l. Prices in the Amic and VST networks have been specifically revised.
Diesel fuel prices have increased more at RLS gas stations (by 1 UAH per liter – up to 51.30 UAH/l). At gas stations of the state-owned Ukrnafta, diesel prices increased by UAH 0.50 to 52.99 UAH/l. In addition, the prices of the Ovis, Green Wave and Market networks will increase by UAH 0.50-0.60.
