According to gas station price monitoring, OKKO's offer rose by UAH 1.00/liter — from UAH 43.90 to UAH 44.90/liter — making gas in this chain the most expensive among the country's major operators. The remaining items on the price lists — gasoline and diesel — stayed at their previous levels in the main chains. ### Gas at OKKO becomes the most expensive The one-hryvnia-per-liter increase at OKKO moved the chain to the top of the ranking by autogas cost. For comparison: at WOG stations liquefied gas is offered at UAH 44.50/liter, in the SOCAR chain — at UAH 43.90/liter, and at the state-owned Ukrnafta — at UAH 42.90/liter. Thus, the price spread for gas among the largest operators is about two hryvnias per liter, and it is OKKO that now sets the upper boundary of this range. ### Shortage of A-98 gasoline at Ukrnafta In parallel with the rise in gas prices, the state-owned Ukrnafta has been completely out of A-98 (Energy) gasoline for the second day in a row, the day before it was offered at UAH 85.90/liter. The disappearance of a premium gasoline grade from the assortment of one of the largest chains is a notable signal for owners of the corresponding vehicles and an additional factor affecting the perception of fuel availability in the market. ### Gasoline and diesel unchanged The rest of the price lists show stability: prices for A-95 and A-100 gasoline grades, as well as for all types of diesel fuel — both standard and premium — at OKKO, WOG, SOCAR, and Ukrnafta stations as of Friday, August 28, remained the same. This means that the day's price increase is narrow in scope and affects only liquefied gas in a single chain. ### Autumn context and forecasts The changes on August 28 come against the backdrop of active discussion of autumn price dynamics. Expert assessments published the day before discuss whether fuel will become cheaper in September 2026 and what will happen to the cost of gasoline and diesel in the coming weeks. Thus, the current targeted gas price increase fits into a broader context of seasonal price-list revisions, which operators typically adjust taking into account wholesale quotes and logistical factors. ### Contradictory data There is a discrepancy between sources in assessing diesel fuel dynamics. In the primary monitoring (RBC-Ukraine) as of August 28, diesel of all types at OKKO, WOG, SOCAR, and Ukrnafta is listed as unchanged. At the same time, in Gazeta.ua's review for the same period, the headline and framing of the material feature the claim of a price increase for diesel and autogas. The difference may be due to one source recording prices strictly across four major chains on a single date, while the other generalizes changes across the market as a whole, including regional or earlier adjustments. Readers should note that as of August 28, 2026, diesel officially did not change price in the four main chains, while gas rose in price only at OKKO. ## 🔍 Fact-Check Verification - [Gas station prices rise: how much gasoline, diesel, and gas cost on August 28](https://www.rbc.ua/ukr/news/tsini-azs-zrosli-skilki-koshtue-benzin-dizel-1787893118.html) - Основной источник: газ на OKKO 44,90 грн/л (+1,00), WOG 44,50, SOCAR 43,90, Укрнефть 42,90; дефицит А-98 в Укрнафте; бензины и дизель без изменений. - [Diesel and autogas prices rise: a review of prices at Ukrainian gas stations](https://gazeta.ua/ru/articles/economics/_dizel-i-avtogaz-podorozhali-obzor-cen-na-ukrainskih-azs/1255517) - Подтверждает рост автогаза; заголовок упоминает подорожание дизеля, что расходится с фиксацией РБК по четырём сетям — отражено в разделе противоречий. - [Gas station prices in September 2026: expert says whether fuel will get cheaper in autumn](https://fakty.com.ua/ru/ukraine/ekonomika/20260827-tsiny-na-azs-u-veresni-2026-ekspert-rozpoviv-chy-podeshevshaye-palne-voseny/) - Контекст: экспертные прогнозы осенней динамики цен на топливо. - [Fuel prices in Ukraine in September: expert says what will happen to the cost of gasoline and ...](https://gorod.dp.ua/news/262633) - Дополнительный контекст прогнозов на сентябрь 2026 по бензину и дизелю. ## ❓ FAQ ### Q: How much does liquefied gas cost at OKKO on August 28, 2026? **A:** At OKKO, gas rose by UAH 1.00/liter — to UAH 44.90/liter, making it the most expensive among major operators. ### Q: How do gas prices compare across chains? **A:** As of August 28: OKKO — UAH 44.90/liter, WOG — UAH 44.50/liter, SOCAR — UAH 43.90/liter, Ukrnafta — UAH 42.90/liter. ### Q: Did gasoline and diesel prices change? **A:** No, in the OKKO, WOG, SOCAR, and Ukrnafta chains, prices for A-95, A-100, and diesel (standard and premium) remained the same.
