　　During the current pricing cycle, international crude oil maintained a volatile upward trend.

The restrictions caused by the mutation of the new crown virus in the United Kingdom have caused market concerns and investors are worried about oil demand. However, the United States adopted a new fiscal stimulus plan and the United Kingdom and the European Union reached a post-Brexit trade agreement, boosting market sentiment.

In addition, boosted by the reduction in US crude, gasoline and distillate inventories, international oil prices have risen again.

　　According to Xu Wenwen, a refined oil analyst at Longzhong Information, after this round of price adjustments, the price of diesel fuel in most parts of the country is around 5.9-6 yuan/liter, and the retail price of 92 gasoline is limited at 5.9-6.1 yuan/liter.

Fuel costs increased by about 28 yuan. This price adjustment will increase the cost for private car owners and logistics companies." Xu Wenwen said.

　　Longzhong Information analyst Li Yan introduced that this price adjustment is the 25th price adjustment in 2020 and the last price adjustment in 2020.

Looking ahead, Zhuo Chuang Information believes that Russia is willing to increase production steadily. With the new crown vaccine successively vaccinated, the market is optimistic that crude oil demand may recover. Considering that the market is relatively cautious under the intertwining of long and short, the international crude oil market may enter Oscillation period.

There is also certain uncertainty in the OPEC+ production reduction policy, and there is still a game of long and short. , It is expected that the next round of refined oil price adjustments will likely be stranded.
