# Diesel at Ukrainian gas stations temporarily broke 100 hryvnia: WOG explained the spike as a technical glitch

![Driver at a Ukrainian gas station as diesel temporarily hits 100 hryvnia due to a WOG technical glitch](https://xab.info/media/2026/09/20/dizel-na-azs-ukrainy-vremenno-probil-100-grn/dizel-na-azs-ukrainy-vremenno-probil-100-grn-1.webp)

## 🎯 Key Points

- At the WOG chain, GP Mustang diesel temporarily reached 103.90 UAH, and Euro-5 diesel — 101.90 UAH, after which by 13:05 it reverted to 99.90 UAH.
- WOG explains the brief price spike as a technical glitch, not a planned increase.
- SOCAR and OKKO hold stable gasoline prices with no noticeable changes.
- At Ukrnafta, basic gasoline grades rose by 1 UAH, 95 Energy gasoline fell by 2 UAH, and autogas increased by 1.7 UAH.

As of Sunday, September 20, 2026, a further movement in fuel prices has been recorded at Ukrainian gas stations. Certain grades of diesel fuel briefly crossed the psychological threshold of 100 hryvnia per liter, while gasoline in most major chains remained stable. The price spread between operators remains noticeable: some chains show local increases, others — minor decreases, while a third group holds the previous level.

### Diesel breaks the 100-hryvnia mark at WOG

The sharpest changes were recorded at the WOG chain. The GP Mustang grade jumped by as much as 4 hryvnia and crossed the psychological boundary, reaching 103.90 UAH per liter, while Euro-5 diesel fuel rose by 2 hryvnia to 101.90 UAH. However, by 13:05, according to data in the gas station app, the values had reverted back to 99.90 UAH. The WOG chain itself explained the "jump" in prices as a technical glitch that occurred during the day, which effectively casts doubt on the status of a "real" price increase for this grade.

### Stable prices at SOCAR and OKKO

The premium SOCAR chain holds gasoline prices at the previous level: NANO 95 costs 96.90 UAH, while A-95 is 93.90 UAH per liter. A similar picture of stability is shown by OKKO, where Pulls 95 gasoline holds its price at 95.90 UAH, and A-95 Euro — at 92.90 UAH. Thus, in these two chains no noticeable spike occurred against the backdrop of the events at WOG.

### Mixed dynamics at Ukrnafta

At the Ukrnafta chain, prices are moving in opposite directions. Basic gasoline grades rose by 1 hryvnia: A-95 reached 87.90 UAH, and A-92 — 85.90 UAH. At the same time, 95 (Energy) gasoline fell in price by 2 hryvnia to 87.90 UAH. The rise in the cost of autogas stands out separately, which increased by 1.7 hryvnia and reached 41.20 UAH per liter.

### Contradictory data

The sources contain a clear discrepancy in assessing the situation with diesel. On the one hand, a number of materials and headlines record that diesel fuel "broke" the 100-hryvnia mark, and at WOG the price on certain grades reached 103.90 and 101.90 UAH. On the other hand, within the same day the values reverted to 99.90 UAH, and the WOG chain itself explained the brief spike as a technical glitch. Additionally, in expert comments (including in a TSN publication), the rise in diesel prices to 100 hryvnia was presented as expected "already tomorrow," that is, as a forecast rather than an already established, sustained fact. As a result, it remains unclear whether crossing the 100-hryvnia mark is a sustained market trend or an artifact of a temporary glitch in the pricing of a specific chain.

### Context and forecasts

Against the backdrop of local spikes, experts warn of a possible rapid increase in fuel prices overall, linking the dynamics to price pressure in the fuel market. Nevertheless, as of September 20, 2026, gasoline in most chains remains stable, and the only noticeable movement is concentrated around diesel fuel at WOG, where, according to the operator, it was a technical glitch rather than a planned increase.
