Oil Price in Uzbekistan — Brent & WTI Crude Today

Uzbekistan is a modest oil and gas producer in Central Asia with domestic refining. While largely self-supplied in gas, its crude sales and imports are influenced by Brent-linked regional pricing.

Classified here as a small domestic producer, Uzbekistan trades against Brent, via CPC Blend and Azeri Light. That is the pricing reference the sections below work from — the headline Brent number quoted at the top of this page is the global marker, not necessarily the price Uzbekistan settles at.

Uzbekistan produces crude, but not at a volume that influences the global balance. Domestic output softens the import bill without insulating the country from the benchmark, because unsold barrels always have an export alternative — refiners price against what the crude could fetch abroad, not what it cost to lift.

Landlocked and Caspian barrels are sold as differentials to Dated Brent once they reach a seaborne loading point, so pipeline tariffs and export-route politics sit between the benchmark and the realised price.

Uzbekistan refines for its own market. Domestic refining means crude is imported or produced and converted locally, so the local fuel price reflects crude cost plus the domestic refining margin rather than the landed cost of finished product. Refinery outages and turnaround schedules can therefore move pump prices here independently of Brent.

Crude is invoiced in US dollars worldwide. Where local prices are quoted in dollars or in a dollar-pegged currency, that removes one layer of volatility: buyers in Uzbekistan face the crude move on its own, without an exchange-rate move stacked on top of it.
