Arkansas, January 23- Average retail gasoline prices in Arkansas have risen

in the last week to $3.34/g, according to gasoline price website
ArkansasGasPrices.com.
Including the change in gas prices in Arkansas during the past week, prices
yesterday were 23.3 cents per gallon higher than the same day one year ago
and are 17.3 cents per gallon higher than a month ago. The national average

"We saw oil prices fall gently late last week as tensions with Iran
seemingly have cooled somewhat," said GasBuddy.com Senior Petroleum Analyst
Patrick DeHaan. "I'm certainly hopeful that the recent easing in tensions
between Iran and the West continues in coming months, but there are
certainly no guarantees and few expectations of such. Having said that, I
expect gasoline prices to move very little in the next week, and in some
areas of the U.S. gasoline prices may fall this week," DeHaan said.
