Fuel prices rise again, analysts say the situation remains tense

Average fuel prices in the Czech Republic have risen again in week-on-week comparison. The average price of the best-selling petrol, Natural 95, is now CZK 42.80 per litre at domestic petrol stations, 1.14 CZK more than a week ago.

Diesel, however, has fallen by 49 hellers to an average of CZK 43.31, according to data from CCS, which tracks fuel prices. The maximum price, which the Ministry of Finance began publishing daily in response to sharp increases in fuel costs following the outbreak of fighting in the Middle East, is currently CZK 44.52 for petrol. Diesel may be sold at a maximum of CZK 44.60 per litre.

Fuel prices at Czech petrol stations are not expected to change significantly in the coming days. The oil market situation remains tense despite recent price declines, and further developments will depend on the geopolitical situation.
