Road fuel price logic: Brent crude is quoted in US dollars per barrel. A rough product cost proxy converts USD per barrel into GBP per litre by applying an FX assumption and dividing by about 159 litres per barrel. UK pump prices then add refining spread, wholesale margin, logistics, retail margin, fuel duty and VAT.
