Oil Price Rises Again, Fuel Prices at the Pump Continue to Increase
The oil price surged again over the weekend of 2026-09-07 due to new attacks by the United States and Iran, causing almost no ships to pass through the Strait of Hormuz. As a result, the recommended price for a liter of gasoline in the Netherlands now exceeds €2.71, surpassing the previous record set in May. Goldman Sachs warns that if attacks persist, Brent crude oil could reach $120 per barrel, over 20% above the current $97. The attacks also impact natural gas and refined products, with diesel prices stable at €2.68 per liter after earlier increases.
