Nigeria May Push Gasoline Prices Higher If Oil Hike
Analysts say Nigeria’s announced plan to raise crude price by 17 percent on April 1 could trigger similar moves by other producers and lift U S gasoline by about three cents per gallon. The Lundberg Letter reports small U S price gains recently, with Nigeria supplying 6.1 percent of U S oil as OPEC contemplates broader increases amid Iran’s slowdown and refining-cost pass through. If peers match Nigeria, U S gasoline could rise further, though one nation’s hike alone might not lift prices.
