Gasoline prices in Moscow started dancing

If oil companies keep gasoline prices at gas stations, then they have risen sharply in independent networks, which was the reason for inspections by the Federal Antimonopoly Service (FAS). The jump occurred after the attacks of the Ukrainian Armed Forces on Russian refineries, including Moscow. The situation is fueled by a new increase in prices for wholesale lots on the stock exchange and a decrease in supply volumes.

According to Rosneft, the cost of AI-92 at the company's gas station in Moscow is 64.3 rubles per liter, and AI-95 is 70.5 rubles. According to Yandex, similar prices also apply at gas stations of other large companies — for example, Lukoil, Gazprom Neft and Tatneft.

However, independent gas stations have a completely different price order. So, the largest network "Neftmagistral" offers Ai-92 at 85.99, and Ai-95 at 94.99. The company publishes such data on the website.

Such a run—up in prices has already led to the fact that the FAS has launched a request for prices and their justification from Neftmagistral and another large independent network, EuroTrans.

The rise in prices is fueled by the fact that wholesale prices on the St. Petersburg Stock Exchange, where independent gas stations are bought, have started to rise again. Ai-92 went up to 70,601 rubles per ton, and Ai-95 — up to 75,576 rubles.

At the same time, sales volumes on the stock exchange decreased. On June 19, according to the St. Petersburg Stock Exchange, they will amount to 21.3 thousand tons.

As EADaily reported, the Ukrainian Armed Forces continue massive drone attacks on Russian refineries and the Moscow plant was attacked for several days. The Moscow City Hall was informed that fuel is supplied to Moscow gas stations in normal mode.

At the same time, in the neighboring Tula region, it was announced that individual gasoline brands began to disappear at separate independent gas stations.

"Fuel supplies to the region are carried out normally at large network gas stations. Short—term interruptions related to delivery logistics and increased demand of the population are possible at individual gas stations, however, as fuel trucks arrive, stocks are quickly replenished," said the governor of the region Dmitry Milyaev.

According to him, in municipalities there are cases of absence of individual brands of fuel at non-network (private) gas stations.
