Gas Prices Drop 6.4 Cents In Chattanooga

  • Monday, August 10, 2015
Average retail gasoline prices in Chattanooga have fallen 6.4 cents per gallon in the past week, averaging $2.18 per gallon on Sunday, according to GasBuddy's daily survey of 170 gas outlets in Chattanooga. This compares with the national average that has fallen 5.4 cents per gallon in the last week to $2.60 per gallon, according to gasoline price website GasBuddy.com.

Including the change in gas prices in Chattanooga during the past week, prices on Sunday were 91.4 cents per gallon lower than the same day one year ago and are 22.2 cents per gallon lower than a month ago.
The national average has decreased 16.2 cents per gallon during the last month and stands 87.9 cents per gallon lower than this day one year ago.

"The powerful combination of declining crude oil prices and robust production from U.S. refineries continues to pummel retail gasoline prices nationwide and it's a trend we expect to continue," said Patrick DeHaan, senior petroleum analyst with GasBuddy. "With West Texas Intermediate slipping to $43.75 per barrel on Friday and refineries exceeding 17 million barrels per day in each of the past four weeks, a level that hasn't been reached since the Energy Information Administration began publishing the data in 1990, that explains why the national average price of gas shed 6 cents per gallon in the past week."

"Even with the extraordinary price spikes in California earlier this summer that inflated the national average, improving conditions there have brought the state average from its mid-July peak at $3.90 down to $3.60 today and that average is 31 cents less than what Californians were looking at last year," said Gregg Laskoski, another senior petroleum analyst with GasBuddy.  "Overall Americans are paying 88 cents per gallon less than what we were paying a year ago and some states like Indiana and Kentucky are saving more than $1 gallon versus last year at this time."
