\"AAA\"Tampa, FL <\/strong>– Motorists are already seeing higher prices at the pump this week, and prices will move even higher now, based on an agreement reached today, by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries.<\/span><\/p>\n

OPEC announced plans to cut crude oil production by 1.2 million barrels a day to 32.5 million a day, effective in January 2017. The shift is aimed at draining a global glut that led to lower fuel prices in the last two years.<\/p>\n

\"Retail<\/a>

Retail prices could rise 10-15 cents<\/p><\/div>\n

Analysts believe the OPEC agreement could boost crude prices by $5.00 or more, which would directly lead to increases of at least 13 cents at the pump. Retail prices were already rising this week based on the expectation that a deal would be reached.<\/p>\n

So far this week, average prices are up 3 cents in Florida, 2 cents in Tennessee, while Georgia\u2019s average is unchanged. \u201cNow that the deal is official, there is potential for prices to move even higher, based on the rate that oil prices climb,\u201d said Mark Jenkins, spokesman, AAA \u2013 The Auto Club Group.<\/p>\n

As of press time, oil prices have risen almost $4.00 to over $49.00 a barrel, and wholesale gasoline shot up 10 cents on the NYMEX.<\/p>\n
