The positive signs emanating from the negotiations between Russia and Ukraine have helped to allay market fears of an escalation of the conflict and a shortage of oil supplies. Despite the great volatility in black gold prices throughout the week, as a result of advances and setbacks on the battlefront, but also diplomatically, the prices of North Sea Brent, which serves as a reference for the European market, have fallen, so when the Portuguese go to fill up, they will feel a relief in prices.

Diesel should be ten cents cheaper and gasoline three cents, a source in the sector told ECO, using the values ​​up to the close of market on Thursday.

These values ​​may still undergo adjustments because it is necessary to take into account the Brent quotations throughout Friday, as well as the exchange rate of the Euro against the Dollar.
