Global crude prices are broadly steady in the latest session, with Brent crude reported at 85.14 USD per barrel and WTI at 87.28 USD per barrel. These levels are unchanged from the previous day and from seven days ago, signaling limited short-term momentum in the international market. By contrast, prices remain well above levels seen 30 days earlier, as Brent stood around 72.13 USD per barrel and WTI about 68.23 USD per barrel, indicating a notable year-on-month divergence despite near-term stability.
Turning to the domestic market, prices for two regions are provided across a range of fuel products with no daily change recorded for any item. The following quotations are in the local currency per liter: Diesel 0.001S-V at Region 1 25 420 and Region 2 25 920; Diesel 0.05S-II at Region 1 23 320 and Region 2 23 780; Gasoline E5 RON 92-II at Region 1 19 820 and Region 2 20 210; Kerosene 2-K at Region 1 24 590 and Region 2 25 080; Gasoline E10 RON 95-III at Region 1 20 550 and Region 2 20 960; Gasoline E10 RON 95-V at Region 1 21 750 and Region 2 22 180. Unit: VND per liter. Across all products, Region 2 prices sit higher than Region 1 by roughly 390 to 500 VND per liter, reflecting regional pricing differences within the same product mix.
Across the board there is no explicit daily movement shown in the data, meaning customers in both regions would see stable pump prices for the listed products in the immediate term. The consistent regional premium in Region 2 suggests distribution or local tax structures may be a factor in the observed spread, even as the domestic market holds its price line.
On the international front, market news over the last 24 hours highlights a softer global oil price environment with multiple outlets reporting declines in Brent and WTI, situating prices near three-week lows at times. Market chatter from August 4 2026 notes continued downward pressure in the wider oil complex, which can influence domestic pricing in the near term as traders weigh supply and demand dynamics, though the current domestic price list shows no immediate changes to pump prices.
Overall, the domestic fuel landscape remains characterized by stable price readings across the listed products, with regional differentials persisting in favor of Region 1 being cheaper than Region 2. The global backdrop shows a mixed signal: short-term softness in the oil complex against a longer-term context where values have rallied compared with the 30-day period, potentially shaping future adjustments in domestic pricing as market conditions evolve.
