Price Trend & Outlook
Unleaded 91 · Solid = historical · Dashed = forecast
Petrol import costs are currently around 21% above where they were six weeks ago, driven by global supply disruptions. While costs have stabilised in the short term, the price floor has risen — expect to pay more than historical averages for the foreseeable future. Short-term cycle swings still apply, but each peak and trough will be higher than what was normal before the disruption.
