‘Oil prices rise slightly again following the conclusion of the Iran-US peace deal’

Oil prices have risen again as tensions between Iran and the United States escalate once more, according to the ANP.
The provisional peace deal between Iran and the United States has formally ended and there is no prospect of a renewal of the ceasefire agreements. According to the ANP, very few ships are still passing through the Strait of Hormuz, and a new attack has also been reported.
As a result, Brent crude rose by 0.2 per cent on Tuesday to a price of $91.06 per barrel. US crude rose by 0.6 per cent to $85.04 per barrel. European gas prices also rose, by around 1 per cent.
Filling up is more expensive again
The rise in oil prices has also made filling up more expensive again. According to calculations by the consumer organisation United Consumers, petrol rose by 0.5 cents to 2.584 euros per litre of Euro95. Diesel rose by 0.6 cents to 2.627 euros per litre.
In the Netherlands, filling up is still considerably more expensive than in Belgium, although maximum petrol prices there rose again last Friday. The maximum price that can be charged at the pump for a litre of Euro95 is 1.936 euros.
