According to the refined oil pricing rules, the next fuel price adjustment will take place at 24:00 on October 15 (next Thursday).

The current pricing cycle has been full of twists and turns. International oil prices plunged more than 4% on Thursday, and although crude rebounded slightly yesterday, a downward adjustment is still expected this round.

Today's fuel price forecast: On October 10, the sixth statistical day of the cycle, gasoline and diesel prices are projected to fall by 225 yuan per ton and 215 yuan per ton, respectively.

Converted to retail prices, 92-octane gasoline is expected to drop 0.18 yuan per liter, 95-octane gasoline 0.19 yuan per liter, and 0-diesel 0.19 yuan per liter. The current estimated cut exceeds 0.15 yuan per liter, making a reduction this round highly likely and potentially ending the previous streak of three consecutive increases.

Looking back at this year's fuel price trends, there are 25 adjustment windows in 2026, with 19 already implemented and 6 remaining. The year has seen 13 increases, 1搁浅 (suspension), and 5 decreases, with more rises than falls overall.

Gasoline and diesel prices have risen by nearly 2,300 yuan per ton cumulatively, equivalent to an increase of 1.89 to 2.03 yuan per liter. Filling a 50-liter tank now costs 90 to 100 yuan more than at the start of the year.

Current national average fuel prices: 92-octane gasoline at 8.59 yuan per liter, 95-octane gasoline at 9.17 yuan per liter, and 0-diesel at 8.27 yuan per liter.
