A new round of oil price control window will open on October 19. With this regulation, gasoline in parts of North China, South China, and Southwest China has once again entered the "8 yuan" era after a lapse of five years.

After five years, we have entered the 8-yuan era, and oil prices have increased again.

A new round of oil price control window will open on October 19. However, according to the " Economic Reference Report ", oil prices have been rising for four consecutive years. Not far away waved to us.

With this regulation, gasoline prices in parts of North China, South China, and Southwest China have once again entered the "8 yuan" era after a lapse of five years. Zhuochuang Information analysts also believe that this round of refined oil retail price limit "four consecutive increases" is a foregone conclusion.

Specifically, according to Zhuo Chuang's calculations, on the seventh domestic working day of closing on October 15, the reference crude oil change rate was 4.42%, corresponding to an increase of 192 yuan/ton in gasoline and diesel, equivalent to a price increase, No. 92 gasoline and No. 0 gasoline Diesel prices will be increased by 0.15 yuan and 0.16 yuan per liter.

reporter found that according to the Sichuan Provincial Development and Reform Commission, during the pricing period from September 30 to today, the highest retail price of No. 92 gasoline in Chengdu was 7.87 yuan/liter. Calculated based on this degree of increase, Chengdu is also one of the regions that has exceeded 8.

Refined oil prices have been rising in the first three price adjustment cycles. If we calculate the oil price in the next cycle based on the increase of 192 yuan/ton, after the "four consecutive increases" in oil prices on the 19th, the cumulative increase of gasoline for these four times is 0.59 yuan per liter. Consumers will spend more to fill up a tank of 92# gasoline. Nearly 30 yuan.

Some netizens are looking for countermeasures, thinking that it is time to pay attention to electric vehicles, "I'd better ride a bicycle to work."

International oil prices have risen by about 20% this year, and will continue to rise in the future

What drives high oil prices? The reporter found that many analysts believe that the continued rise in international crude oil prices is an important reason for the increase in refined oil prices.

According to statistics from China Petroleum Network, international oil prices have risen by about 20% since the beginning of this year, and are expected to rise further.

On the one hand, US oil sanctions on Iran are coming. Once Iranian oil is sanctioned, global crude oil supply will decrease and oil prices will rise. On the other hand, if the recent "disappearance" of Saudi journalists is not effectively resolved, it will push up oil prices to US$100 per barrel.

In the view of Cao Xinchuan, an analyst at the Research and Development Department of Huaxin Securities, we should be wary of the impact of rising oil prices on overall prices. Since the beginning of this year, international crude oil prices have risen significantly. The sharp rise in crude oil prices has also driven up the prices of midstream and downstream chemicals and refined oil products, which in turn has pushed up the growth rate of PPI. Judging from the current situation in the Gulf, international oil prices are likely to rise further.

Faced with such high oil prices, how will you choose to respond? Bicycles or new energy vehicles or public transportation or others?
