Australian Petrol Price Forecast: Week of 9–15 June 2026
> Disclaimer: This forecast is indicative only, based on publicly available market data, ACCC cycle patterns, and geopolitical conditions at publication. Actual prices may differ. Always verify on the live directory before filling.
Outlook summary
Melbourne and other capital cities are likely in the late trough or early rise phase of the current petrol price cycle.
Cycle and wholesale forces
Expect daily average unleaded prices to move 3–8 cents per litre higher across the week if the cycle is turning, with sharper jumps possible on Thursday and Friday as retailers enter peak pricing.
International Mogas 95 benchmarks remain elevated amid ongoing Middle East supply uncertainty. Wholesale pass-through could add 2–5 cpl independently of the cycle.
National range estimate
Suburban boards will sit above and below that average. Compare your route on the map.
Recommendation
Fill early in the week if your suburb shows prices below the metro median. Delay if you see a spike above 10 cpl from recent averages — the cycle will retreat.
