Fuel price today 14/8/2026: [Domestic fuel prices rise across regions while international crude holds steady]

Global crude prices hovered near the 81 to 78 USD per barrel range, with Brent at 81.89 USD per barrel and WTI at 78.02 USD per barrel. Both benchmarks show little change from the previous day and the past week, signaling a stable international backdrop for fuel markets. The data provides these two international reference points and notes that 30 day data is not available in this snapshot, suggesting a short term view of the international oil complex.

Domestically, price changes are positive across the listed fuels. Diesel DO 0.001S-V rises from 29,720 VND per liter in Region 1 to 30,310 VND per liter in Region 2, up 4,300 VND. DO 0.05S-II moves from 27,620 to 28,170, up 4,300. Gasoline E5 RON 92-II goes from 22,380 to 22,820, up 2,560. Kerosene 2-K increases from 27,400 to 27,940, up 2,810. Gasoline E10 RON 95-III climbs from 22,850 to 23,300, up 2,300. Gasoline E10 RON 95-V rises from 24,250 to 24,730, up 2,500. All prices are in Vietnamese dong per liter and reflect two regional price points in the domestic market.

Regional price differentials show a uniform premium for Region 2 across all items. The gap ranges from about 440 to 590 VND per liter, with the largest delta of 590 VND for DO 0.001S-V diesel and the smallest around 440 VND for Gasoline E5 RON 92-II. This pattern highlights regional distribution and pricing dynamics within the domestic market rather than wholesale shifts in the international price environment.

Market news and trends from the past 24 hours indicate that global oil prices declined by more than 2 percent on 14 August, with Brent around 81.89 USD per barrel and WTI around 78.02 USD per barrel. In contrast, the domestic fuel price update shows rises across the listed products, suggesting a divergence between international benchmarks and local pricing. Some outlets also note that Gasoline E10 has moved toward the 19 000 VND per liter threshold in certain reports, underscoring ongoing volatility in the oil complex and domestic price formation.
