On March 9th, the National Development and Reform Commission announced that based on the comparison between the average price of the first 10 working days on March 9th and the average price of the last 10 working days before the price adjustment, according to the current refined oil price mechanism, the domestic prices of gasoline and diesel will increase by 695 yuan and 670 yuan per ton respectively from 24:00 on March 9th. The relevant person in charge of the National Development and Reform Commission said that the three major companies of PetroChina, Sinopec, and CNOOC, as well as other crude oil processing enterprises, should organize the production and transportation of refined oil products well, ensure stable market supply, and strictly implement national price policies. Relevant departments in various regions should increase their market supervision and inspection efforts, strictly investigate and punish behaviors that do not implement national price policies, and maintain normal market order. Consumers can report price violations through the 12315 platform. During this round of refined oil price adjustment cycle, international oil prices have risen significantly. The Price Monitoring Center of the National Development and Reform Commission predicts that changes in the situation in the Middle East will be the most significant factor affecting the later trend of international oil prices.
