據(jù)今日油價(jià)網(wǎng)站12月16日消息 油價(jià)跟蹤機(jī)構(gòu)GasBuddy石油分析主管帕特里克·德哈恩周四表示,自感恩節(jié)以來,美國汽油價(jià)格已下跌0.10美元,并將在圣誕節(jié)前進(jìn)一步下跌,不過圣誕節(jié)汽油價(jià)格可能接近有史以來最高的圣誕節(jié)汽油價(jià)格。
德哈恩表示:“油價(jià)在圣誕節(jié)前及時(shí)降價(jià),自感恩節(jié)以來,全國汽油平均價(jià)格每加侖下降了10美分。”
根據(jù)美國汽車協(xié)會(huì)的數(shù)據(jù),截至12月16日,普通汽油的全國平均價(jià)格為每加侖3.316美元。
上周,美國汽油價(jià)格在11月底國際原油價(jià)格大幅調(diào)整后終于開始下跌,原因是人們對(duì)新的冠狀病毒變種奧密克戎的擔(dān)憂。
然而,美國的汽油價(jià)格仍遠(yuǎn)高于去年同期,當(dāng)時(shí)一加侖普通汽油的平均售價(jià)為2.158美元。
德哈恩在12月6日表示:“未來幾天將出現(xiàn)更大幅度下跌,3.29美元/加侖的價(jià)格應(yīng)該會(huì)出現(xiàn)。”
周四,德哈恩預(yù)測,圣誕節(jié)的全國平均油價(jià)將從今天的3.32美元降至每加侖3.25美元。
盡管最近油價(jià)下跌,但汽油價(jià)格比去年平均水平高出1美元以上。
今年圣誕節(jié),美國的汽油價(jià)格將低于感恩節(jié)的價(jià)格,但據(jù)GasBuddy稱,預(yù)計(jì)將非常接近2013年圣誕節(jié)每加侖3.26美元的歷史高點(diǎn)。
GasBuddy預(yù)計(jì),該圣誕汽油價(jià)格將達(dá)到每加侖3.25美元,低于2013年的紀(jì)錄高點(diǎn),與2012年的第二高價(jià)格持平。相比之下,2020年圣誕節(jié)期間的汽油價(jià)格為每加侖2.25美元。
GasBuddy表示:“與2013年每加侖3.26美元的圣誕記錄價(jià)格相比只相差了1美分,這是有史以來最高的圣誕節(jié)價(jià)格,2021年的價(jià)格仍有可能仍高于前一個(gè)圣誕節(jié)的記錄。”

U.S. Gasoline Prices Continue To Fall Ahead Of Christmas
U.S. gasoline prices have dropped by $0.10 since Thanksgiving and are set to fall further until Christmas, although the holiday prices could be close to the highest Christmas gasoline prices on record, Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at fuel-savings platform GasBuddy, said on Thursday.
“Santa came early this year, delivering lower gas prices just in time for Christmas with the national average price of gasoline down 10 cents per gallon since Thanksgiving,” De Haan said.
As of December 16, the national average price of a gallon of regular gasoline was $3.316, according to data from AAA.
Last week, U.S. gasoline prices finally started to fall after the major correction in international crude oil prices at the end of November driven by fears of the new COVID variant, Omicron.
Yet, gasoline prices in America are still much higher than at this time last year, when a gallon of regular gasoline sold for an average of $2.158.
“More declines coming. $3.29/gal should happen in the next few days,” De Haan said on December 6.
On Thursday, De Haan projected that the national average on Christmas was set to decline to $3.25 per gallon from today’s $3.32.
Despite the recent drop in prices, gasoline is more than $1 more expensive than the average for last year.
This Christmas, gasoline prices in America will be lower than the Thanksgiving prices, but they are expected to be very close to the all-time high for Christmas of $3.26 per gallon in 2013, according to GasBuddy.
The fuel-savings platform expects this Christmas gasoline prices at $3.25 per gallon, a cent below the record high of 2013 and on par with the second-highest price of 2012. To compare, gasoline prices during the Christmas of 2020 were $2.25 per gallon.
“Just a penny away from 2013’s Christmas tally of $3.26 per gallon, the priciest Christmas on record, there remains a chance prices in 2021 could still land just above the previous Christmas record,” GasBuddy said.
