Gasoline prices on the rise despite high oil production in the US
The Hill ^ | 08/15/2023 | RACHEL FRAZIN

Posted on 08/15/2023 5:50:54 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

The average price for a gallon of gasoline in the U.S. is $3.85. That’s up nearly 30 cents from a month ago.

Prices are still lower this year than they were last year due to spikes caused by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine; however, they are at their highest point this year.

Factors influencing the high gasoline prices include oil supply cuts abroad and issues at refineries that turn crude oil into gasoline.

Oil prices are a major factor in the price of the gasoline that eventually reaches consumers at the pump. Oil prices have been on the rise over the past month or so along with gasoline prices.

Experts said that production cuts from a group of oil-producing nations known as OPEC+ since October are a major factor in the prices of both oil and gasoline.

The U.S. can produce 12.8 million barrels a day and at some point one or two of the OPEC+ nations will break and increase production.

Biden is allowing this just to curry the favor of voters leading up to the 2023 election.
