As of Sunday, August 30, 2026, retail fuel prices at Ukrainian gas stations show a stable spread between networks. As RBC-Ukraine notes, the most affordable fuel is traditionally offered by Ukrnafta, while premium networks — OKKO, WOG and SOCAR — maintain a higher price level. For a driver filling a 50-liter tank with standard A-95 gasoline, the difference between the cheapest and the most expensive offer reaches 250 hryvnias, making the choice of gas station a significant factor in monthly transport expenses.
Gasoline A-95: where it is cheaper and where it is more expensive
The lowest price for standard A-95 gasoline as of August 30, 2026 is offered by Ukrnafta — 78.90 UAH per liter. At OKKO, WOG and SOCAR networks, the cost of the same fuel ranges from 82.90 to 83.90 UAH. Upgraded gasoline grades — Pulls 95, Mustang, NANO 95 — cost more: from 85.90 to 86.90 UAH per liter depending on the network. Thus, even within the single "standard A-95" category, consumers face a difference of almost 5 hryvnias per liter between the lower and upper bounds of the market.
Diesel fuel: standard and premium
The situation with diesel mirrors the gasoline logic, but at higher absolute figures. Standard diesel fuel costs from 89.90 UAH at Ukrnafta to 94.90 UAH at SOCAR. Premium diesel grades hold at levels from 91.90 UAH (Ukrnafta) to 97.90 UAH (SOCAR). For owners of truck and light diesel vehicles, this means that choosing between Ukrnafta and SOCAR when filling a 50-liter tank with standard diesel results in an overpayment of 250 hryvnias — 4495 UAH versus 4745 UAH respectively.
Autogas and high-octane gasoline 100
The most affordable type of fuel remains liquefied gas (autogas). It is cheapest at Ukrnafta — 42.90 UAH per liter. At WOG the price is 44.50 UAH, and at OKKO and SOCAR — 44.90 UAH. The maximum difference on a 50-liter tank of gas reaches 100 hryvnias (2145 UAH at Ukrnafta versus 2245 UAH at OKKO/SOCAR). A separate niche is occupied by branded high-octane 100-grade fuel: at WOG it is offered from 92.90 UAH, at OKKO and SOCAR — from 93.90 UAH per liter.
How much a full tank costs: practical calculations
For clarity, RBC-Ukraine provides calculations for a 50-liter tank. Filling up with A-95 gasoline at Ukrnafta costs 3945 UAH (78.90 UAH/l), at OKKO and SOCAR networks — 4195 UAH (83.90 UAH/l), at WOG — 4145 UAH (82.90 UAH/l). The difference between the extreme values is 250 UAH. For autogas: 2145 UAH at Ukrnafta, 2225 UAH at WOG, 2245 UAH at OKKO/SOCAR. For standard diesel: 4495 UAH at Ukrnafta versus 4745 UAH at SOCAR. These figures show that regular refueling at a more expensive network, given average mileage, translates into thousands of hryvnias of additional monthly expenses.
Contradictory data
In publications citing prices for August 30, 2026, the emphasis of the presentation differs. RBC-Ukraine focuses on the price spread between networks and the size of the per-tank difference (250 UAH), without asserting a sharp spike. At the same time, the publication glavcom.ua, in a headline of the same date, presents the material as "gasoline has sharply risen in price," indicating a perception of the dynamics as a significant increase relative to previous days (including data for August 29). Thus, one version emphasizes the static difference between operators, the other — a short-term price hike. The exact absolute values for August 30 coincide in both cases for A-95 gasoline, diesel and gas; the discrepancy concerns only the interpretation of the trend.
Outlook for autumn
Against the backdrop of current prices, experts surveyed in late August 2026 discuss whether fuel will become cheaper in autumn. There is no consensus on the direction of price movement: retail rates are influenced by the exchange rate, logistics, seasonal demand and the situation in the wholesale market. For consumers, this means that even if wholesale quotes fall, the retail spread between networks recorded on August 30 will most likely persist, and savings from choosing where to refuel will remain an effective tool for cutting expenses.
