Oil prices are about to rise again, and only 4 months after 2022, the sixth rise in oil prices will be ushered in.
According to the rules of domestic refined oil price adjustment, a new round of refined oil retail price adjustment window will be opened again at 24:00 on March 31. Combining the 10 working days from March 17 to March 31, the average of international oil prices, compared with the 10 working days from March 3 to March 17, the average of international oil prices rose by an average of 2.68%, that is to say, it is expected that the oil price adjustment window on March 31, domestic oil prices will rise again, and oil prices are expected to rise by 115 yuan / ton, equivalent to the calculation of the expected oil price increase of 0.09-0.10 yuan / liter, calculated by the 50 liters of fuel tanks of family cars, it will cost 5 yuan more to fill up.
It seems that the increase is not large, but in fact, the current price of No. 92 oil has been as high as 8.65 yuan per liter, the original price is already very high, this oil price rise can be said to be worse, some people ridicule, a foot on the throttle, a meat sandwich bun is gone; a tank of oil, enough to buy a bicycle; 3 tanks of oil, enough to buy an electric car. The phrase "95 full" has become the most arrogant way to show off wealth at present.
When do oil prices reach the ceiling?
As we all know, there are floor prices and ceiling prices in domestic oil prices, why has No. 92 oil risen to nearly 9 yuan, or has not triggered the ceiling price mechanism? According to the "Measures for the Administration of Oil Prices" issued in 2016, the upper and lower limits of regulation and control are set for the domestic refined oil price mechanism, with the upper limit of regulation and control being US$130 per barrel ("ceiling price") and the lower limit being US$40 per barrel ("floor price"). So how long will our oil prices be off the ceiling?
7 working days before the oil price adjustment window, the average price of reference crude oil was $114.24, which is still a long way from $130, which also means that if you want to achieve a rise in crude oil, the situation that domestic oil prices do not rise may still be far away. At that time, No. 92 oil may be close to 10 yuan per liter, and it is possible to reach the ceiling price.
Affected by the geopolitical risks in Europe, the energy crisis may be difficult to end in a short period of time, the rise in oil prices is not over, for fuel car owners, you can only drive as little as possible, electric vehicle owners can steal fun.
