6. Market Background Supplement
Cost Side: Recently, international crude oil prices have remained at high levels. The escalation of U.S.-Iran tensions in early September triggered a sharp rise in oil prices. Although international crude oil futures declined on September 11, they still stayed above $100 per barrel. Upstream costs continue to provide strong support for gasoline prices.

On September 14, the mainstream quotations for 92# gasoline in the northeastern and northwestern regions of China remained at 10,100-10,200 CNY per ton, with spot circulation prices remaining high.
