Gasoline prices in the United States have experienced significant fluctuations over the past three decades, with 2024 seeing an average price of 3.3 U.S. dollars per gallon. This marks a notable decrease from the record high of 3.95 U.S. dollars per gallon in 2022, yet remains considerably higher than prices seen in the early 2000s. Despite this, American consumers continue to enjoy relatively low gasoline prices compared to many other countries, with some European countries paying more than double the U.S. average. Drivers in Hawaii and California pay the most at the pump Gasoline prices vary significantly across the United States, with Hawaii and California consistently ranking as the most expensive states for this fuel. As of January 1, 2025, Hawaii's average price for regular gasoline was 4.54 U.S. dollars per gallon, nearly 1.5 dollars above the national average. California's high prices are largely attributed to its steep gasoline taxes, which reached 68.1 U.S. cents per gallon in January 2024. These taxes play a crucial role in shaping retail prices and are typically reinvested in road infrastructure, demonstrating the direct link between fuel costs and transportation development. Patterns in gasoline consumption In a global context, the United States maintains some of the lowest conventional motor fuel prices among high-income countries. This is largely due to its position as the world's largest crude oil producer, allowing it to keep retail prices comparatively low. Despite fluctuations in price, gasoline consumption in the U.S. remains robust, averaging around 8.5 million barrels per day in 2024. Consumption tends to be highest in the summer months and lowest in the winter months due to changing driving behavior.
Canadian drivers should expect to pay more at a gas station as economic conditions begin to improve after the pandemic.
On April 20th, 2020, the price of West Texas Intermediate crude oil slumped into negative for the first time in history, falling to negative 37.63 U.S. dollars per barrel. The ongoing coronavirus pandemic has had a catastrophic impact on the global oil and gas industry. Declining consumer demand and high levels of production output are threatening to exceed oil storage capacities, which resulted in the lowest ever oil prices noted between April 20th and April 22nd.

In the second quarter of 2022, the average retail price for a gallon of regular gasoline stood at around 4.49 U.S. dollars, up from the previous quarter.
A glut in oil supply between 2014 and 2016 forced down prices and led to a low average U.S. gasoline price of roughly 1.9 U.S. dollars per gallon in the first quarter. Gasoline prices fluctuated considerably between 2019 and 2020 as a result of tensions between the United States and other oil exporters, such as Iran, and stifling oil demand during the Covid-19 pandemic. The price of West Texas Intermediate briefly dipped in the negative in April 2020.
Seasonal price variations
There are periodic fluctuations in gasoline prices in the United States, where the second and third quarters are typically more expensive than the rest of the year. One of the factors contributing to changing gasoline prices is a decrease in production from refineries due to maintenance work in tandem with an increase in demand, as holiday goers make road-trips. Gasoline will revert to cheaper winter-grade in September. Annual motor vehicle consumption in the United States was around 128 billion gallons as of 2020.

Between 2002 and 2023, prices of OPEC Reference Basket oils fluctuated dramatically. For example, Saharan Blend from Algeria stood at some 25 U.S. dollars per barrel in 2002. Ten years later, this figure had increased to more than 111 U.S. dollars. In 2023, it stood at 83.64 U.S. dollars. Oil prices: a rollercoaster ride Oil prices are inherently volatile due to the speculative nature of their price determination. Thus, sudden economic and geopolitical events may have big influences on pricing. For example, some of the major factors behind price fluctuation since the 2000s have been the global financial crisis in 2008, the 2020 coronavirus pandemic, and the energy supply crisis and subsequent Russia-Ukraine war in 2022. As a result, the OPEC crude oil price have oscillated between lows of 40 U.S. dollars and highs of 110 U.S. dollars. Shale oil overproduction leads to 2010 oil glut The 2010s price crash was caused in part by ever-growing production of domestic shale and tight oil in the United States. Though nearly 80 percent of global oil reserves can be found in OPEC countries, the United States has become the largest producer of oil worldwide in the last ten years.

The average monthly price for natural gas in the United States amounted to **** nominal U.S. dollars per million British thermal units (Btu) in May 2025. By contrast, natural gas prices in Europe were about three times higher than those in the U.S. Prices in Europe tend to be notably higher than those in the U.S. as the latter benefits from being a major hydrocarbon producer. Europe's import reliance European prices for natural gas rose most notable throughout the second half of 2021 and much of 2022, peaking at over ** U.S. dollars per million Btu in August 2022. The sharp rise was due to supply chain issues and economic strain following the COVID-19 pandemic, which was further exacerbated by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in early 2022. As a result of the war, many countries began looking for alternative sources, and Russian pipeline gas imports to the European Union declined as a result. Meanwhile, LNG was a great beneficiary, with LNG demand in Europe rising by more than ** percent between 2021 and 2023. How domestic natural gas production shapes prices As intimated, the United States’ position among the leaders of worldwide natural gas production is one of the main reasons for why prices for this commodity are so low across the country. In 2023, the U.S. produced more than ************ cubic meters of natural gas, which allays domestic demand and allows for far lower purchasing prices.

Europe’s petroleum and natural gas extraction support services’ revenue is forecast to contract at a compound annual rate of 3.8% over the five years through 2024 to €62.1 billion. Widespread disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic weighed heavily on extraction and exploration activity in downstream oil and gas markets as poor demand conditions caused prices to plummet, disincentivising new investment and causing support service contractors to offer price concessions to customers, compounding the industry’s weak revenue performance and weighing on profitability. Demand has increased since lockdown restrictions eased, supporting revenue over 2021 and 2022. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine led to significant price increases in both oil and gas due to supply uncertainties. This also led to Norway becoming Europe’s largest natural gas supplier in 2022, supporting revenue opportunities for Norwegian contractors. Norway has also increased the level of investment into new oil and gas fields to alleviate uncertainties regarding supply following trade restrictions placed on Russian oil and gas. Nonetheless, weakening demand and falling oil and gas prices have contributed to an expected revenue slump of 20.3% in 2024. Over the five years through 2029, revenue is forecast to climb at a compound annual rate of 7% to €87.2 billion. New investments into oil and gas fields will provide contractors with new revenue opportunities, supporting revenue growth and expanding profitability. However, ongoing efforts across Europe to meet environmental and emissions targets, like net zero by 2050, will continue to threaten demand for oil and gas, somewhat limiting revenue growth.

The ethane category is the fastest growing segment of the Natural Gas Liquids industry
Market Dynamics of Natural Gas Liquids Market
Key Drivers for Natural Gas Liquids Market
Increasing Petrochemical Industry to Boost Market Growth
The market for natural gas liquids (NGL) is mostly driven by the expanding petrochemical sector. Natural gas liquids (NGLs) like ethane, propane, and butane are vital raw materials for the synthesis of petrochemicals like ethylene and propylene, which are extensively utilized in the creation of synthetic materials, chemicals, and plastics. The need for NGLs is rising due to the petrochemical industry's explosive growth, particularly in North America and Asia. The utilization of NGLs in a variety of applications is growing as a result of growing industrialization and technological developments in chemical processing. The global need for consumer goods, packaging, and industrial materials is driving the petrochemical industry's growth, which in turn will fuel the NGL market's long-term growth.
The Surge in Shale Gas Production to Drive Market Growth
The market for natural gas liquids (NGL) is growing as a result of increased shale gas output. Production of NGLs, including ethane, propane, and butane, has expanded because of the spike in shale gas extraction, especially in North America, through horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing technology. These liquids are frequently left over after natural gas from shale formations is extracted. In order to fulfill growing global demand, the U.S. shale boom has improved export prospects and supported local NGL supplies. The supply of NGLs is directly increased by the ongoing expansion of shale gas production, which fosters the long-term growth of the NGL market by meeting the increasing demand from sectors such as transportation, energy, and petrochemicals.
Restraint Factor for the Natural Gas Liquids Market
Price Volatility for Crude Oil Will Limit Market Growth
The volatility of crude oil prices severely constrains
The natural gas liquids (NGL) market. Because NGLs are frequently extracted in conjunction with crude oil and natural gas, changes in oil prices have an immediate effect on how profitable it is to produce NGLs. Oil and gas companies may cut back on drilling when crude oil prices drop, which lowers the output of NGLs. Furthermore, a decline in oil prices may increase the appeal of alternative energy sources, which would lessen the market for NGLs. On the other hand, sudden spikes in oil prices can cause market instability and increase the operational expenses for NGL producers. It is difficult for NGL market participants to sustain consistent growth because of this price volatility, which also makes long-term planning more difficult and causes investor concern.
Impact of Covid-19 on the Natural Gas Liquids Market
The COVID-19 pandemic had a substantial effect on the natural gas liquids (NGL) market because it caused supply chain disruptions on a worldwide scale, decreased energy consumption, and a steep reduction in industrial activity. Lockdowns and limitations reduced the demand for NGLs, especially in the transportation and petrochemical sectors, which are big users of butane, propane, and ethane. The demand for NGLs as alter...
