Fuel Price Report for Ukraine: March 15, 2026 Trends and Government Response

Current Fuel Market Conditions in Ukraine

According to Главком: As of March 15, 2026, Ukraine's fuel market shows average prices and notable shifts across specific retail networks. The average cost for a liter of A-95 gasoline is approximately 69.25 UAH, while diesel fuel averages 74.98 UAH per liter. Price fluctuations are driven not only by domestic factors but also by volatility in global energy markets, which directly impacts import-dependent nations.

Diesel prices have risen by 1 UAH at OKKO, WOG, and UPG stations. Conversely, diesel has become cheaper at Ukrnafta and BRSM networks. The price of gas (LPG) also increased by 1 UAH at WOG. In response to these market movements, Ukraine's Antimonopoly Committee has announced it will launch an investigation, signaling heightened regulatory scrutiny. The government has concurrently reached an agreement with NAK 'Naftogaz' and 'Ukrnafta' to collaborate on measures to curb further fuel price increases.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized that 'the authorities will strive to restrain the rise in gasoline prices.'

Alongside these efforts, authorities have introduced a cashback mechanism for citizens purchasing fuel at stations. Economy Minister Yulia Svyrydenko stated that 'citizens will be able to receive cashback from the state when buying fuel at filling stations.' This policy is designed to alleviate the financial burden on consumers during a period of economic pressure.

Impact on the Agricultural Sector

Fuel expenses constitute roughly 10–15% of the production costs in the agricultural sector. Analysts estimate that the prices of agricultural products may rise by no more than 1–2% as a result. This follows a record surge in global energy prices last week, where oil surpassed the $100 per barrel mark for the first time since 2022. U.S. oil futures jumped by 14.7%, while the benchmark Brent crude added over 12%, reaching $104.

The table below details fuel prices across various retail networks:

• UPG: A95 - 68.90, A95+ - 71.90, Diesel - 77.90, Diesel+ - 79.90, A100 - 78.90, Gas - 43.40.
• OKKO: A95 - 70.99, A95+ - 73.99, Diesel - 79.99, Diesel+ - 82.99, A100 - 80.99, Gas - 44.99.
• WOG: A95 - 70.99, A95+ - 73.99, Diesel - 79.99, Diesel+ - 82.99, A100 - 80.99, Gas - 45.98.

Overall, the fuel market situation in Ukraine remains tense, prompting the government to implement stabilization measures and consumer support initiatives.

The rise in fuel costs, partly due to soaring global benchmarks, has the potential to affect Ukraine's overall inflation rate and increase expenses for the vital agricultural sector. Government initiatives like the fuel purchase cashback aim to reduce financial pressure on households. The Antimonopoly Committee's planned market probe further indicates state efforts to monitor the sector and prevent potential speculation during this challenging period.
