The new round of domestic refined oil price adjustment will take place at 24:00 on August 14. According to various institutions, the refined oil price is expected to see its fifth reduction this year. Liu Bingjuan, a refined oil analyst at Longzhong Information, mentioned that as of August 12, the average reference crude oil price during this cycle was $82.14 per barrel, down 4.90% from the previous period. It is anticipated that when the price adjustment window opens, the theoretical reduction for refined oil will be around 210 yuan per ton, which translates to a decrease of approximately 0.15 yuan per liter. For a private car with a 70-liter fuel tank, this means that filling up the tank will save the owner about 11 yuan.
