# SOCAR Catches Up with Market: Petrol and Diesel Drop by One Hryvnia, Autogas Hits Peak

## Key Points

- On November 13, SOCAR lowered petrol and diesel prices by 1.00 UAH/l, catching up with competitors after yesterday's massive cuts
- Autogas at SOCAR rose by 1.00 UAH/l to 63.90 UAH/l, reaching a peak among monitored networks
- OKKO, WOG, Ukrnafta, and UPG kept prices unchanged following active cuts on November 12
- The lowest prices for A-95 (86.90 UAH/l) and autogas (60.90 UAH/l) are maintained by Ukrnafta and UPG

On Friday, November 13, 2026, the Ukrainian retail fuel market concluded a two-day cycle of price cuts for petrol and diesel. While the day before, on November 12, market-average quotations for A-95 petrol dropped by 48 kopecks (to 88.26 UAH/l) and diesel by 72 kopecks (to 103.59 UAH/l), SOCAR was the only major network that had not yet reflected this movement in its price tags. The operator caught up with competitors by slashing 1.00 UAH/l off all grades of petrol and diesel. At the same time, the cost of autogas at the network rose by 1.00 UAH/l to 63.90 UAH/l, bringing it to the maximum level among all monitored operators.

### SOCAR Synchronizes with the Market: Petrol and Diesel Cheaper by a Hryvnia

Following yesterday's widespread fuel price reductions across OKKO, WOG, Ukrnafta, and UPG networks, today it was SOCAR's turn. A-95 petrol at the network now costs 91.90 UAH/l, NANO 95 is 94.90 UAH/l, and NANO 100 is 102.00 UAH/l. Standard NANO diesel dropped to 106.00 UAH/l, while premium Extro fell to 109.00 UAH/l. Thus, the gap between SOCAR and the affordability leaders has shrunk to a minimum, and the network has finally entered the general price corridor formed on November 12.

### Autogas at SOCAR Reaches Market Peak

Unlike petrol and diesel, autogas at SOCAR networks became more expensive: the operator raised its price tag by +1.00 UAH/l to 63.90 UAH/l. This figure matched the price of gas at the OKKO network, which had previously held the upper boundary of the market. Against the backdrop of the general downward trend in liquid fuels, the rise in LPG costs looks like a local exception, yet in absolute terms it remains within familiar market dynamics: back on November 12, the Ukrainian national average for autogas rose by 54 kopecks, and on November 10 UPG had already increased its gas price by 1.00 UAH/l.

### Price Pause: Four Networks Leave Tags Untouched

OKKO, WOG, Ukrnafta, and UPG, which actively cut petrol and diesel prices on November 12, kept all their retail prices unchanged today. As a result, Friday became a day of price stability for most operators: the only downward movement was made by SOCAR, and the only upward adjustment was for gas at the same network. For the end consumer, this means that the window for profitable refueling opened on Thursday lasted without any additional surprises.

### Where It Is Cheapest to Refuel Right Now

As of November 13, the lowest price for standard A-95 petrol is held by Ukrnafta and UPG at 86.90 UAH/l. The most affordable diesel is offered by UPG at 101.90 UAH/l. A low price tag for autogas (60.90 UAH/l) is also recorded at Ukrnafta and UPG networks. Therefore, for car owners running on gas, these two operators remain the optimal choice, while SOCAR with its 63.90 UAH/l per liter of LPG temporarily steps back from being an affordability leader. The difference between the cheapest and most expensive A-95 petrol on the market is about 5–6 UAH/l depending on the specific network and region.

### Context: How the Market Changed This Week

Fuel price dynamics in Ukraine this week have been uneven. On November 10, the key event was a 1.00 UAH/l drop in all petrol grades at WOG while UPG simultaneously raised its autogas price by 1.00 UAH/l; diesel remained stable across all networks at the time. On November 12, a more substantial movement occurred: average petrol and diesel prices fell nationwide, while gas, conversely, rose in price. On November 13, SOCAR completed the cycle by catching up with competitors. Altogether over three days, A-95 petrol lost about 1–1.5 UAH/l on average across the market, diesel dropped by about 1.5–2 UAH/l, whereas autogas gained about 1–1.5 UAH/l. This structure of changes indicates that operators are redistributing margins: liquid fuels are getting cheaper while gas is getting more expensive, which may be linked to seasonal demand and logistical factors.
