Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the recent adjustments in domestic fuel prices based on the changes in international crude oil prices, highlighting the mechanisms and conditions under which these adjustments occur [1][3][5]. Pricing Mechanism - Domestic fuel prices are adjusted every 10 working days, with a threshold of 50 yuan/ton for adjustments. If the international oil price exceeds $130/barrel, domestic prices may not increase significantly, while prices will not decrease if crude oil is below $40/barrel [1][3]. - The last price adjustment occurred on July 15, 2025, with a decrease of 0.1-0.11 yuan/liter for gasoline and diesel [3]. Current Market Conditions - As of August 8, 2025, the international oil prices were reported at $63.88/barrel for WTI and $66.59/barrel for Brent, indicating a significant decline of 8.74% and 9.08% respectively during the current pricing cycle [5][7]. - The current pricing cycle is nearing its end, with expectations of a potential decrease in domestic fuel prices due to the downward trend in international oil prices [3][7]. Factors Influencing Price Changes - Factors supporting the rise in oil prices include increased summer energy demand in the U.S., sanctions on Russia by the U.S. and EU, and ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and Eastern Europe [5]. - Conversely, the decline in oil prices is attributed to easing concerns over U.S. sanctions on Russian oil and disappointing U.S. economic performance, which has raised fears about energy demand [7]. Future Outlook - The upcoming pricing cycle (the 17th adjustment) is expected to start with a negative value, indicating a potential for significant price reductions in the next adjustment [7]. - The article suggests that the domestic fuel prices may remain stable or decrease in the near future, depending on the international oil market trends [5][7]. Regional Price Information - A table provides the current prices of 89, 92, 95 gasoline, and 0 diesel across various provinces, indicating slight variations in pricing and recent changes [8].
