HOUSTON (AP) – No city in the weekly Triple-A Texas gasoline price survey fell short of a record-high pump price this week.
The survey released today shows regular self-serve is averaging a record-high $3.47 per gallon, 13 cents higher than last week. Nationally, the average price rose 14 cents to $3.56 per gallon.
The reason is the stratospheric price of crude oil, which tops $115 per barrel today.
The most expensive gasoline in Texas is found in Fort Worth, where the average climbed 13 cents this week to a record $3.49 per gallon. The state’s cheapest gas is in San Antonio, where the price climbed 14 cents this week to $3.41 per gallon.
