The current price of oil as of August 5, 2026 is $83.72 per barrel, according to Fortune.

This is a decrease of $6.09 since yesterday morning and roughly $15.38 more than at this time last year.

Oil prices are influenced by supply and demand, with the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve playing a crucial role in maintaining energy security during emergencies.

The price you see at the gas pump reflects more than just crude oil, including costs of refining, distribution, taxes, and local station margins.
