Saxo Bank said crude oil had re-established some upside momentum after the early August correction ran out of steam. In the near term, extended Opec production cuts will help support tight market balances but the combination of rising production spare capacity and worries about the economic outlook may still prevent prices from having a sustained move above $90.
Since the UAE deregulated petrol prices in 2015, the government has been revising retail fuel rates at the end of every month to bring them in line with the global rates. Prices peaked last year after the outbreak of the war between Russia and Ukraine.
Despite the rise in petrol prices for three consecutive months, local rates are still cheaper by one-third compared to the global average.
