Global oil markets were mixed but broadly firmer in the latest session. Brent crude stands at 102.58 USD per barrel, with the previous day at 103.87, seven days ago at 102.25, and thirty days ago at 109.87. WTI crude trades at 90.44 USD per barrel, after 91.19 the previous day, 91.11 seven days ago, and 104.30 thirty days ago. The price path suggests ongoing sensitivity to global demand signals and supply dynamics as markets digest geopolitical factors and supply constraints.
Domestic retail prices across two regions show systematic differences among product lines. DO 0.001S-V is priced at 32,090 VND per liter in Region 1 and 32,730 VND per liter in Region 2. DO 0.05S-II is 30,490 in Region 1 and 31,090 in Region 2. Gasoline E5 RON 92-II is 26,390 Region 1 and 26,910 Region 2. Kerosene 2-K is 30,630 Region 1 and 31,240 Region 2. Gasoline E10 RON 95-III is 27,080 Region 1 and 27,620 Region 2. Gasoline E10 RON 95-V is 28,080 Region 1 and 28,640 Region 2. All units are VND per liter. The Region 2 prices are generally higher than Region 1 for most products, indicating regional pricing differentials rather than a uniform national level in this update.
On a product basis, the E10 grades command a premium over E5 across both regions, with Region 1 showing a 690 VND gap (27,080 vs 26,390) and Region 2 a 710 VND gap (27,620 vs 26,910). Diesel and kerosene variants also show regional spread, with 2-K kerosene and DO variants trading higher in Region 2 by roughly 600 to 640 VND per liter. These differentials reflect localized policy and supply conditions that influence pump prices while the overall update records no explicit change indicator in this cycle.
Market news over the past 24 hours centers on global energy sentiment and local price moves. Multiple outlets report that world oil prices have trended higher, with Brent surpassing the 104 USD per barrel level in some briefings while others note mixed signals in short windows. Domestic headlines echo this volatility, with reports of price adjustments and ongoing commentary about the pace of gains in gasoline and diesel as markets react to global price changes and regulatory price cycles. The date of this snapshot is 10 October 2026, reflecting current regional price differentials alongside ongoing global price dynamics.
