Texas Gas Prices
New Year Brings Lower Gas Prices Save Email Print

(January 5, 2007)--The New Year has brought falling retail gasoline prices to Texas.

The weekly AAA-Texas gas price survey released Friday shows regular self-serve gasoline averaging $2.21 per gallon, down a penny from last week.

Nationally, regular self-serve is averaging $2.32 per gallon, also down a penny.

Auto club spokeswoman Rose Rougeau says the New Year's holiday is usually a down time for travelers, reducing gasoline prices.

She says motorists planning trip to warm-weather areas should see stable gas prices for the next two weeks.

The most expensive gasoline in Texas this week is found in the Austin area, where regular self-serve averaged $2.24 per gallon this week, down one cent from last week.

The cheapest gasoline is in Corpus Christi, where the average retail price fell about three cents to $2.14 a gallon.

Around the state Friday, prices ranged from as little as $2 a gallon at a station in Orange to as much as $2.60 a gallon at a station in Big Bend National Park.

The declines come as crude oil prices continue to drop.

Traders have attributed the pullback to unusually warm weather in the US, curbing demand for heating fuels.

Crude has continued to fall this morning, after the benchmark price Thursday settled at its lowest level since June 2005.

Light sweet crude for February delivery is trading just above $55 a barrel in electronic trading on the the New York Mercantile Exchange.

That's down about $6 from a week ago.
