Gasoline prices across the country have risen for six consecutive weeks.

However, the rise has slowed somewhat from last month.

Gasoline gasoline sales prices nationwide this week were KRW 1,355.4, up 9.1 won per ℓ from last week.

The most expensive gasoline gas station in Seoul was 1,448.3 won, up 8.8 won per liter from last week.

On the other hand, gasoline prices in Daegu were the lowest at 1,333.3 won per ℓ.

By brand, cheap gas stations were the cheapest at 1,318.2 won, and SK Energy was the most expensive at 1,363.9 won.

The sales price of gas stations across the country was 1,158.4 won per ℓ, up 8.7 won from last week.

Like the gasoline price, the gas price was the lowest at 1,122.9 won, and SK Energy was the highest at 1,167.2 won.

The oil refining industry forecast that the price of gas station oil will continue to rise until next week, considering the time difference, although international oil prices fell slightly this week after peaking last week.

International fluctuations in oil prices are reflected in the gasoline prices of domestic gas stations with a time difference of 2-3 weeks.
