No they haven't gone so much down because PLN went down to USD and because benzine in Poland has (much higher than in USA) fixed tax - independent from oil market prices.

I expect Obama must be something of a hero, then. No? Oh, right, only a Republican president would be able to claim credit for that. Petrol prices in Poland have trickled down.

So misinformed as the Low Information Voters (Democrats) are such as your liberal self.
The banks are in control of the gas prices my friend, not any president.

No. As is shown by the three-month graph here: autocentrum.pl/paliwa/ceny-paliw

The banks are in control of the gas prices my friend, not any president.

So what? Since when did politicians only claim credit for things which they were in control of?

People who are even vaguely 'informed' about Poland know that here there is no Democrat party, and thus Roger cannot vote Democrat.

As for the gas prices I also heard that US is playing games to hurt Putin & ISIL,on the other hand also is it true that OPEC countries are increasing production to hurt US taking out its own gas,as it costs then 80$ a barrel to cover costs and the current price is 63$ a barrel so the US is also loosing.I wonder what are the facts meanwhile the consumer is not enjoying much as the airline and other prices havent gone down at all.

so the US is also loosing

OPEC is taking a much harder hit as the U.S. dollar is stronger than ever.
The U.S. is producing an all time high production of oil.
Soon OPEC will be a "has been" to America.
The airlines are recovering some of the losses that they incurred over the last few years.
Americans are paying around $2.65 per gallon for gas right now which is boosting the economy.
Can't wait to connect with the Keystone pipeline out of Canada which will make gas even cheaper.
It will be America's turn to sell fresh water to OPEC for a $100 a barrel. Hide and watch.

They don't control anything, including their very own oil resources.

The Saudi's control the prices.

OPEC as a whole, though Saudi is the biggest player in OPEC. Part of the current overproduction is the Saudis wanting to weaken Iran and Iraq, both of whom are suffering since their national budgets (Iraq anyway) are calculated at $60 per barrel and we're now at $45.

Merged: The GREAT OIL crash

$47.06
marketwatch.com/investing/future/crude%20oil%20-%20electronic

What are your views on oil collapse and whats petrol prices like in your area?
Do you think this will lead to a global market crash?
It is said the US markets are driven or backed by oil and the Saudi's are increasing production to stop US fraking companies but some say this is a result of the US sanctions on Russia.

What do you think?

The Saudi moves are aimed at Russia and the terrorists . The tracking industry in the United States is doing well with natural gas production and will shut down oil wells as needed . The wells and refineries can sit for years and be restarted quickly in case demand increases . This kind of oil glut has happened before .

Today a Saudi oil minister stated that oil at $100 /bbl will never happen again ... did you hear that Czar Vladimir ??
Russia needs oil at $120/bbl to balance their budget !

The Saudis are more concerned about Iran and Iraq. The price per barrel is expected to pick up this year from its current low, though we'll be waiting a few months.

What are the gas/petro prices currently in Poland ?
It just went up to $4 a gallon here where I live.
When Trump was in office it was $1.85.

6.46zl a litre for 95 and 6.88 for 98

Prices in the US are generally lower due to actually producing it. Traditionally prices are lower in Poland than the U.K. (far lower distribution and running costs) however today's price in the U.K. is actually lower than today's price in Poland.

There's some difference between regions and the Poland and U.K. prices are both for the region around their respective capitals.

The difference is that Orlen is producing record profits on the backs of Poles when the gas could actually be sold for about 5 zl a liter and still be profitable.

Hard to disagree with.

and still be profitable

No reason they should make a profit at all. It was better in public ownership when any surplus went to running schools, hospitals and the police/army. Or failing that, at least have it in the contract about how much they can make in profit or sell it for.

Petrol is sadly an essential and right now Orlen are indeed ripping the public off. They're not quite a monopoly however at least in the U.K. there are discounters, often belonging to supermarkets, where the prices are a bit lower.

That ripping of Polish drivers by PiS gov had been suspected for years but actually proven a few months ago .

Exactly. PiS are looking for money everywhere to finance their benefits.

Silly Jon... How do you buy things like Polska Press without outrageous profits?

Polska Press

You don't.

Governments have a tendency to sell off the family silver.

E10 petrol at our petrol station €1,799 and Super €1,849.
gumishu 13 | 6,138

the thing is we don't know what E10 and Super are - we are used to octane numbering here in Poland (for example 95 and 98 are 95 and 98 octane gasoline) -

the 98 octane gas costs less than 7 pln at most stations - and 95 is cheaper (the more octanes the better)

in other words you don't know what you are talking about: Polska Presse was bought by Orlen like 2 years ago (not that it made a lot of sense from economic point of view)

also the PiS government is keen on buying back companies PO and company sold (bank Pekao, PKP Energetyka come to mind)

what E10 and Super are -

Super or E5 corresponds to Polish 95 gasoline, E10 is Super containing 10% biofuel. We also have a Super Plus that corresponds to the Polish 98. Your 95 should also have 5% biofuel like ours.

I read an article about it just now and it never said 'should have' there, just 'can have' and as far as I know production of fuel grade ethanol is more expensive than buying crude oil from overseas (at the moment)

PO and company sold (bank Pekao,

I have been waiting for the moment when you return to your usual lying after this break you have taken. PO didn`t sell PeKaO, the bank was sold in 1999 by the Solidarity gov.

It's not about what is more expensive to produce, it's about the fact that the Germans can produce ethanol themselves and they have to buy crude oil. I only fill up with E10 in Germany.
