据油价网2月14日消息：根据节油应用GasBuddy的数据，随着美国冬季风暴的缓解，上周汽油需求猛增，比四周滚动平均水平高出1.8%，而汽油价格则在飙升，本周可能触及每加仑3.50美元的全国平均水平。

GasBuddy石油分析主管帕特里克·德哈恩在《周刊》杂志上表示，由于冬季风暴消退，GasBuddy数据显示，上周美国每周汽油需求比前一周猛增6.4%，比四周滚动平均值高出1.8%。周一美国汽油需求更新。

按日细分，本周前三天美国汽油需求在前一周飙升后趋于平稳。然而，德哈恩指出，本周晚些时候，汽油需求在下半周反弹，周三比上周三增长4.9%，周四比上周四增长34.3%，周五比上周五增长30.1%，周六下降10.1%。

德哈恩周日表示，随着布伦特原油价格在周一早盘触及每桶95美元，随后在当天晚些时候回落，美国汽油的全国平均价格本周可能会继续上涨。

他在推特上写道:“西得克萨斯中质油(WTI)每桶94美元，全国平均汽油价格本周将超过3.50美元/加仑。”

美国汽车协会(AAA)数据显示，截至2月14日，全国普通汽油平均价格为每加仑3.488美元。这高于一个月前的3.306美元/加仑，也高于去年同期的2.505美元/加仑。

AAA周一表示，高油价仍是近几周油价飙升的主要驱动力，并补充称，“冬季天气温和以及对omicron变体可能消退的乐观情绪导致了天然气需求增加。”

AAA发言人安德鲁·格罗斯说:“更多的司机在这里加油，再加上全球石油供应持续紧张，导致油价上涨。不幸的是，对于消费者来说，这种趋势似乎不会很快改变。”

U.S. Gasoline Demand And Prices Jump

As winter storms across the United States eased, gasoline demand jumped last week to stand at 1.8 percent above the four-week rolling average, according to data from for fuel-savings app GasBuddy, while gasoline prices are soaring and could hit a national average of $3.50 a gallon this week.

Due to fading winter storms, GasBuddy data showed that weekly U.S. gasoline demand jumped by 6.4 percent last week from the previous week and was 1.8 percent above the four week rolling average, Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy, said in the Weekly US Gasoline Demand Update on Monday.

Broken down by day, the first three days of the week saw U.S. gasoline demand level off after spiking the prior week. Later in the week, however, gasoline demand bounced back for the second half of the week with Wednesday up 4.9 percent from the prior Wednesday, Thursday jumped 34.3 percent from the prior Thursday with Friday up 30.1 percent from the prior Friday, and Saturday down 10.1 percent, De Haan noted.

As Brent oil prices hit $95 a barrel early on Monday, before paring gains later in the day, the national average U.S. gasoline price will likely continue to rise this week, De Haan said on Sunday.

“WTI $94, national average gas price will eclipse $3.50/gal this week,” he tweeted.

As of February 14, the national average per gallon of regular gasoline was $3.488, AAA data showed. That’s up from $3.306/gal a month ago and up from the $2.505/gal price at this time last year.

High crude oil prices remain the main driver behind the jump in pump prices in recent weeks, AAA said on Monday, adding that “Moderating winter weather and optimism over a potential fading of the omicron variant have led to an increase in gas demand.”

“More drivers fueling up here coupled with a persistent tight supply of oil worldwide provides the recipe for higher prices at the pump,” AAA spokesperson Andrew Gross said. “And unfortunately for consumers, it does not appear that this trend will change anytime soon.”
