This is the biggest drop in more than two months and the sharpest since the regulator began reporting this data last May.
The latest weekly sales price watch report, released by ERSE on Monday, indicates that the so-called “effective price” (the average weekly price of fuel determined by ERSE, which is the sum of all components that make up the price of this product, are from the prices of raw materials in international markets to tax, through logistics, biofuel integration and retail) will be, in the week of August 8-14, from 1848 euros per liter in the case of 95 regular gasoline From 1.821 euros per liter of simple diesel fuel.
In both cases, there is a decrease of more than 4.8% in relation to the effective price reported last week, from 1,943 euros per liter for petrol and 1,913 euros per liter for diesel.
This is the biggest drop in prices since ERSE began publishing this data, at a time when oil prices were falling on international markets.
The price of a barrel of Brent crude, traded in London, which is a reference to the European market, this afternoon, reached less than 96 dollars, approaching its lowest values since the end of February this year. The pressure on raw material prices was fears of a global economic recession, which could lead to a sharp contraction in oil demand.
It is not possible, at the moment, to compare the value estimated by ERSE for this week with those charged by gas stations, as national average prices will be released, for Monday, only on Tuesday.

ERSE also calculates the average price with discounts, an indicator that includes discounts exercised at filling stations, for example, through fleet cards or coupons. This indicator has always remained below the reference price, and in the case of diesel, the difference is now the highest ever, approaching 5%.
Last week, the reduced price was set at an average of €1.889 per liter of regular gasoline, 5.4 cents less per liter (or 2.8%) below the reference price calculated for this week.
The average discounted price of diesel was calculated at €1,826 per liter for the week of August 1-8, 4.8% lower than the reference price for that week. This is the biggest difference since ERSE began reporting this data.
