Sand you need to attest, the best thing is to wait for monday, since fuel prices will fall. According to the Automobile Club de Portugal (ACP), gas oil should be six cents cheaper, while petrol should have a price decrease in the order of two cents.
This is at a time when the average price of simple diesel is EUR 2,221 per litre, while simple petrol 95 is costing EUR 2,115 per litre, according to the data released by the Directorate-General for Energy and Geology (DGEG) on the Online Fuel Prices website.
“ If the forecasts for next week are confirmed, the average diesel price will fall to EUR 2,161 per litre and gasoline will be EUR 2,095 per litre,” the ACP estimates.
It also explains that “this forecast consists of average values based on raw material prices at the closing of last Thursday’s markets. That is, if there are fluctuations in crude and fuel prices by the end of Friday, there may be some price variation from the expected”.
“ You can also find fuel stations with different price variations, as this sector, and consequently its pricing policy, is liberalised”, notes the ACP. Any change in the ISP by the government may also change the forecasts.
Price of diesel fuel in EU pumps reaches a historical maximum. Check values
The prices of diesel in the European Union (EU) reached a new maximum of EUR 2.23 per litre, compared with EUR 2.16 the previous week, according to an analysis by the AFP news agency of national data published by the European Commission.
Based on these weekly data, available since 2005, records have been set in 19 EU countries — including Germany, France and Italy — due to the impact of the energy crisis resulting from the Middle East wars and the conflict in Ukraine.
Among the countries that recorded new records, Denmark and Finland have the highest prices, with EUR 2.56 per litre of diesel, ahead of Germany (EUR 2,46). Belgium and France (nearly EUR 2.40) then Italy (near EUR 2.30).
Other countries, such as Spain and Sweden, also rise, but remain below peaks in 2022, following Russia's large-scale invasion of Ukraine.
These data, from the European Commission's oil report, are provided by the national authorities and generally reflect the prices charged by the fuel supply stations at the beginning of the week or at the end of the previous week.
The value added for the block of the 27 countries is weighted on the basis of fuel consumption in each Member State in 2024.
Russia invaded Ukraine on 24 February 2022, while the United States and Israel launched a military offensive against Iran in February, which eventually spread across the Middle East.
