The Ukrainian fuel market remains relatively stable; however, choosing the right gas station remains a relevant issue for drivers. As of July 14, the price spread between different gas station networks remains significant: a smart choice of refueling location can save up to 7 UAH per liter.
The most significant price gap is observed in the diesel fuel segment. Experts note that premium diesel at "Ukrnafta" stations is significantly cheaper than at SOCAR network outlets. Drivers choosing the former over the latter can save exactly 7 UAH on every liter of fuel.
A significant difference is also recorded in the autogas (LPG) market. Here, the price gap between market leaders — such as OKKO, WOG, and SOCAR — and "Ukrnafta" amounts to 3.50 UAH per liter. For owners of vehicles with gas equipment, this is a noticeable sum: filling a full 40-liter tank at a more advantageous station will save up to 140 UAH.
The situation with gasoline also demonstrates price variability. For standard A-95 gasoline, the difference between the cheapest and most expensive offer on the market is 5 UAH per liter. If considering the premium gasoline segment, this gap increases to 6 UAH.
Summary by Fuel Type
- Diesel: maximum savings of 7 UAH/l (difference between "Ukrnafta" and SOCAR).
- Autogas: savings of 3.50 UAH/l, yielding up to 140 UAH on a full tank.
- Gasoline A-95: price spread is 5 UAH/l.
- Premium Gasoline: difference reaches 6 UAH/l.
Thus, even amidst general price stability in the Ukrainian fuel market, a careful approach to choosing a gas station network allows drivers to significantly optimize vehicle maintenance costs.
