H its average price petrol In Attica, there is close to 1.96 euros per liter, with service stations fuel Now move in price range from 1.62 to 2.30 euros per liter, as the latest available data show.
The rise to fuel prices are primarily attributed to the increase in refinery prices, which within just 24 hours were reinforced by 26 euros per cubic meter for gasoline and by 41 euros for diesel (diesel). At the retail level, this means an increase by approximately 2.6 minutes/liter for the unilowned and 4.1 minutes/liter For diesel.
The increase is part of a wider trend that has begun to be recorded by the beginning of the week. Gasoline has been on average by 0.8 minutes nationwide in the last 24 hours, while the diesel increased 1.3 minutes/liter, with increases being found even larger in Athens and Thessaloniki.
Developments in the Middle East – and in particular the deterioration of safety conditions in maritime passes – have reinforced international oil contracts, which is now passed on to Greek stations, with the market foreseen gradual transmission of increases.
POPEK: There is no unfair speculation
According to the Panhellenic Federation of Fuel Station (POPEK), increases faithfully reflect the course of prices in refineries, rejecting any suspicion of arbitrary burdens. As stated in yesterday’s (18.6.2025) intervention, the market operates under strict control to prevent speculative practices, and no violations of regulated mixed profit limits have been found.
At the same time, it is noted that High variation in upper prices (up to € 2.30/liter in Basin stations) is associated with high -cost operating costs (eg tourist points, isolated zones).
According to market estimates, if the current run of international prices is maintained and there is no correction of the oil market, the price of unleaded may even reach the 1.80 -euro limit at the weekend.
Consumers are called upon to be very careful about refueling planning, especially those who are going to move in tourist areas, where increases are recorded earlier and more intensely.
In any case, the stations remain active to post the prices per liter at a clear point, while the Ministry of Development’s fuel prices observatory offers real -time comparisons per region.
