Arkansas Weekly Gas Price Update

Arkansas, June 11- Average retail gasoline prices in Arkansas have fallen

in the past week, averaging $3.21/g yesterday. This compares with the

national average that has fallen  in the last week to $3.56/g, according to

gasoline price website ArkansasGasPrices.com.

Including the change in gas prices in Arkansas during the past week, prices

yesterday were  lower than the same day one year ago and are 24.2 cents per

gallon lower than a month ago. The national average has decreased  during

the last month and stands  lower than this day one year ago.

"While price decreases have heated up on the West Coast, such decreases are

drying up in other areas- such as the Great Lakes," said GasBuddy.com Senior

Petroleum Analyst Patrick DeHaan. "While current factors still point to some

falling gasoline prices in some areas, mainly the West Coast, oil prices

haven't continued to shed as much value in the past week. Prices in the past

few years have bottomed out in June, we could see a similar situation play

out this year," DeHaan said.
