Fuel prices in Singapore rise for 4th time in 6 days as SPC catches up with hike

All major fuel companies in Singapore have now raised their pump prices at least once this week.

This, as Chinese state-owned SPC on Saturday (Sept 19), followed upward adjustments posted by Caltex, Esso, Shell and Sinopec earlier this week.

In a price board update at 11am on Saturday, SPC announced a 12-cent hike across its petrol types, while increasing its diesel price by 8 cents.

The increase mirrors that of Esso and Shell , which raised their petrol prices by the same amount.

Following the latest round of price increases, the price of the more popular 95-octane petrol now ranges from $3.45 at Sinopec to $3.49 at Caltex, Esso and Shell.

At $3.48 per litre for its 95-octane petrol, SPC takes the middle ground among the five major fuel companies in Singapore.

Prices are correct as at 12pm on Sept 20. All prices are before discounts.

Oil prices had climbed to around four-month highs this week as sources said crude loadings at Saudi Arabia's Red Sea export hub of Yanbu had been suspended and Riyadh had cancelled some deliveries to Europe after its East-West pipeline was damaged in an attack last week.

Three of the pipeline's pumping stations — one more than assessed previously — were damaged, according to satellite imagery and three industry sources.

A prolonged closure of the pipeline to Yanbu could cut off as much as four per cent of global oil supply, traders have said.

Highlighting uncertainty, JPMorgan said on Thursday it does not have a clear baseline view for oil markets for the first time since the start of the US-Israeli war on Iran.

The US and Iran have held no peace talks since an interim agreement reached in June collapsed within weeks.

The war will come up for discussion at the United Nations General Assembly next week, and an Iranian delegation will be able to attend , according to the US State Department.

新加坡所有主要燃油公司本周至少都上调了一次油价。

此前，中国国有石油公司SPC于9月19日（周六）发布了股价上调公告，而本周早些时候，加德士、埃索、壳牌和中石化也相继发布了股价上调公告。

周六上午 11 点，SPC 发布了价格更新公告，宣布旗下所有汽油价格上涨 12 分，柴油价格上涨 8 分。

此次涨价与埃索和壳牌的涨价幅度相同，这两家公司都将汽油价格提高了相同的幅度。

在最近一轮价格上涨之后，更受欢迎的95号汽油的价格目前从中国石化每加仑3.45美元到加德士、埃索和壳牌每加仑3.49美元不等。

SPC 的 95 号汽油价格为每升 3.48 美元，在新加坡五大燃油公司中处于中等水平。

本周油价攀升至近四个月来的最高点，消息人士称，沙特阿拉伯红海出口枢纽延布的原油装载已经暂停，而利雅得在上周其东西输油管道遭到袭击后取消了部分对欧洲的原油交付。

根据卫星图像和三位业内人士的说法，该输油管道的三个泵站（比之前评估的多一个）遭到损坏。

交易员表示，通往延布的输油管道长期关闭可能会切断全球多达 4% 的石油供应。

摩根大通周四表示，由于存在不确定性，自美以对伊朗发动战争以来，该公司首次对石油市场没有明确的基准看法。

自6月份达成的临时协议在几周内破裂以来，美国和伊朗就没有举行过任何和平谈判。

据美国国务院称，下周联合国大会将讨论这场战争，伊朗代表团将能够出席。
