Malaysia's national oil company Petronas reported Tuesday a record annual profit and said it is assessing the viability of a proposed gas project in Iran following the pullout of French energy giant Total SA. Net profit soared 31.5 percent to 61 billion ringgit (US$19 billion) in the financial year ended March 31, on the back of a 21 percent jump in revenue to 223.1 billion ringgit (US$69.7 billion), said Petronas Chief Executive and President Hassan Marican.

On Thursday, prices of the popular gasoline RON95 dropped for the third time this month while diesel slid to a four-month low.

RON95 fell 0.13% to VND22,990 ($0.95) per liter, while biofuel E5 RON92 rose 0.46% to VND21,790.

This was RON95’s third straight decline this month.

Diesel declined for the fourth time in a row by 0.44% to VND20,190, lowest since Jul. 21.

Global oil price was little changed on Thursday as investors remained cautious ahead of expected production cuts by the OPEC+ group, and as weaker-than-expected Chinese factory data underscored slowing growth in the world’s second largest economy.

Since last Thursday RON92 has risen 0.72% to $91.75 per barrel while RON95 dropped 0.16% to $97.11. Diesel fell 0.5% to $101.94.
