The global fuel energy price index stood at 157.89 index points in September 2025, up from 100 in the base year 2016. Figures decreased that month due to a fall in natural gas prices. The fuel energy index includes prices for crude oil, natural gas, coal, and propane. Supply constraints across multiple commodities The global natural gas price index surged nearly 11-fold, and the global coal price index rose almost seven-fold from summer 2020 to summer 2022. This notable escalation was largely attributed to the Russia-Ukraine war, exerting increased pressure on the global supply chain. Tariffs bring economic uncertainty With the global economy having adjusted to the effects of the Russia-Ukraine war, new uncertainty has emerged due to tariffs imposed by the Trump administration. If these tariffs are fully implemented, global trade could be significantly disrupted, mainly the bilateral trade between the world’s two largest economies. In 2025, import tariffs between China and the United States exceeded 130 percent on both sides, while their tariffs on imports from the rest of the world were around 10 percent. U.S. tariffs on Chinese imported goods reached a high of 134.7 percent in April of that year, while China imposed a 147.6 percent tariff on U.S. goods. Early estimates indicate that the impact of Trump’s proposed tariffs on the U.S. economy could amount to 0.4 percent of GDP, mainly driven by the reduced trade with Mexico, Canada and China.

U.S. on the lower-end spectrum of worldwide motor fuel prices The U.S. has some of the lowest conventional motor fuel prices in the world. Although fuel prices are usually higher in high-income countries, the U.S. profits from its position as the world’s largest crude oil producer and can keep retail prices for oil products comparatively low. For example, among high-income countries, prices for automotive premium gasoline (RON 95) were only lower in Russia and Saudi Arabia - countries where crude oil and oil product exports are in part restricted by sanctions, thus keeping domestic supply high.

This dataset contains synthetically generated monthly fuel price data for Sri Lanka from January 2010 to August 2025, covering five major fuel types:

• Petrol 92
• Petrol 95
• Diesel Auto
• Diesel Super
• Kerosene

Prices are not real — they are created using a statistical simulation model that incorporates realistic market behaviors and macroeconomic effects such as:

• Global oil price fluctuations
• Exchange rate changes
• Policy revisions and tax adjustments
• Seasonal demand shifts
• Crisis-related volatility (e.g., synthetic 2020 pandemic dip, 2022 FX/debt crisis spike)

The dataset is designed for educational, research, and data science practice purposes — ideal for time-series forecasting, trend visualization, and policy simulation exercises.

How to Use

You can use this dataset for:

• ⛽ Time-Series Forecasting – Build ARIMA, Prophet, LSTM, or XGBoost models to predict future fuel prices.
• 📈 Policy Impact Analysis – Simulate how events affect fuel prices.
• 📊 Data Visualization – Create dashboards showing trends by fuel type.
• 🧪 Feature Engineering – Generate lag features, moving averages, seasonal indicators, and volatility measures.
• 🔍 Categorical Analysis – Study correlations between change_reason and price changes.

Note: Missing values are included in certain months for some fuel types to simulate real-world data gaps. This allows testing of imputation and data cleaning techniques.
