MANILA -- Oil prices may roll back in the first week of August, the Department of Energy (DOE) said Friday.

DOE Oil Industry Management Bureau Director III Rodela Romero said petroleum prices may drop by the following amounts:

Gasoline – no change or P0.20/liter decrease
Diesel – P0.20 to P0.40/liter decrease
Kerosene – P0.30 to P0.35/liter decrease

Romero said weak China demand and the Organization of Petroleum-Exporting Countries (OPEC)'s plan to boost global supply may keep prices low.

On the other hand, Middle East tensions and decreasing oil inventory in the United States may keep prices up or make rollbacks smaller, she noted.
