Cashback Program and Import Impact

A fuel cashback initiative, active from March 20 to May 31, 2026, proved popular among Ukrainians, with 2.3 million people taking part. The program offered 15% back on diesel, 10% on petrol, and 5% on autogas purchases.

Following the shutdown of Ukraine’s largest oil refinery, over 85% of light petroleum products now rely on imports. This has driven a sharp rise in diesel costs, up by 33.9%. Between February 26 and March 31, diesel prices (Platts) surged 86%, while import costs climbed 58%. Pump prices increased by 39%, with petrol rising 16%.

Ukraine’s Antimonopoly Committee has found no evidence of monopolistic practices in the fuel market. The main factor behind the price hikes is the country’s heavy dependence on imports after the refinery closure—more than 85% of light petroleum products are now imported. As Pavlo Kyrylenko noted,

“at the same time, average prices at Ukrainian petrol stations rose more slowly—petrol by 16%, diesel by 39%.”

Thus, Ukraine’s fuel market remains under pressure from external forces, even as domestic prices stay stable amid global upward trends. For context, this situation highlights how a single refinery shutdown can reshape a nation’s energy landscape, driving up costs and altering supply chains.

The fuel market situation in Ukraine reflects the challenges of import dependency. The refinery closure has significantly impacted pricing structures, yet despite global price swings, local rates remain steady. This points to a degree of government oversight and market adaptation to new conditions.
