The lowest reported price for diesel gas in Morgan County was $4.99 per gallon during the week ending Mar. 28, available at two gas stations, according to customer reports submitted to GasBuddy.

The county registered an average of $5.33 per gallon for diesel gas.

Morgan County had 41 of 116 reported gas stations offering diesel gas.

For comparison, the average price of diesel gas in Alabama was $5.16 per gallon for the week ending Mar. 28, up from the previous week.

U.S. gas prices continue to decline after reaching their lowest level since 2021, according to GasBuddy. The group projects the national average could dip below $2.80 per gallon during the holiday period, driven by increased oil production and lower seasonal demand.

The U.S. Energy Information Administration expects global oil stockpiles to keep growing into 2026, a trend that could weigh on crude prices in the near term. Brent crude is projected to average about $55 per barrel in early 2026 and remain near that level for the rest of the year. The agency notes that production decisions by OPEC+ and continued inventory building in China could limit how far prices fall.

Gas price data reflects cash payments. Some stations may charge higher prices for credit card transactions due to processing fees, though such surcharges are prohibited in some states and territories.

Data is accurate as of press time, but gas prices have been known to fluctuate on a daily, and even hourly, basis.
