The Ministry of Infrastructure and Energy has announced that current prices will remain valid until July 20. Furthermore, the ministry specified that the calculation methodology for these prices will continue to be based on the movement of global oil derivative prices and fluctuations in the dollar-euro exchange rate. The established model prices are determined using the seven-day average of mineral oil derivatives pricing.
It is noted that the pricing for oil derivatives sold on motorways and expressways is set independently by the traders. This announcement provides clarity regarding the duration of the current rate structure. The reliance on global market indicators, specifically oil derivatives and the dollar-euro exchange rate, suggests an ongoing linkage between domestic pricing and international financial benchmarks.
The Ministry’s guidelines establish a framework for the model prices, which are calculated systematically. However, the actual retail pricing for oil derivatives remains subject to the discretionary setting by private traders operating on major transport routes. Therefore, while the Ministry sets the parameters and the expiration date for the current structure, the final transaction prices for oil products are determined through market mechanisms by these commercial entities.
