Petrol and diesel prices today, 11 July: Fuel prices in India stood steady on Saturday despite softening of oil prices from earlier weekly peaks. This retreat on Friday was driven by resumption of diplomatic talks between the United States and Iran. The flare-up in fighting seems subdued as the two sides are continuing technical discussions to find a solution. With negotiations in progress, the June agreement to halt military action was “over,” US President Donald Trump said. The recent escalation in hostilities deterred tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz and as a result upended global energy trade. As the Persian Gulf waterway remains the point of contention, Washington wants public statement from Tehran declaring that the ship traffic through the Hormuz chokepoint has been fully restored, AP reported.
According to Tehran's semi-official Tasnim news agency, a Qatari delegation arrived in Iran for next round of discussions. The price of Brent crude, the international benchmark fell 0.41% and settled at $75.99 per barrel, Reuters reported. According to ship-tracking data, traffic in Hormuz remained thin on Friday after appearing to come to a near halt on 9 July. Energy specialist at TP ICAP Group Plc Scott Shelton said, “Overall, the price action is consistent with the narrative that the market doesn’t think the hostilities are going to last," Bloomberg reported. He added, “On the flip side, oil flows out of the Strait of Hormuz are down significantly from last week while there are signs that China may be increasing runs.” Moving to city-specific petrol and diesel prices on 11 July, we observe that fuel rates remain unchanged and largely correspond to effective prices brought about by latest revision that occurred on 25 May.
Since state-run OMCs determine retail fuel prices in India, domestic petrol and diesel prices remain stable even at the face of global fluctuation in crude prices.
