Oil prices on Wednesday (March 11) remained volatile, with Brent crude surging back above US$90 per barrel, as the market weighs a potential record-breaking International Energy Agency (IEA) strategic reserves release.
Meanwhile, the United States and Israel traded air strikes with Iran across the Middle East as the besieged Tehran government warned its state security forces were ready with "fingers on the trigger" to confront any anti-government protests.
The US also said it military "eliminated" 16 Iranian mine-laying vessels near the Strait of Hormuz.
Checks by AsiaOne on the Consumers Association of Singapore's Price Kaki app at 7pm show that Sinopec, followed by Esso, raised petrol and diesel prices on Wednesday.

On Wednesday evening, posted prices for 95-octane petrol ranged from $3.30 at SPC to $3.35 at Caltex, Esso, and Shell.
Sinopec's posted price for its 95-octane petrol was raised by 16 cents on Wednesday morning to $3.31.
This was followed by Esso's 4 cents increase in the afternoon. Its posted price for the popular 95-octane petrol is now $3.35.
The more premium 98-octane petrol is now 13 to 19 cents away from the $4 per litre mark as at 7pm on Wednesday.
Sinopec and Esso increased their posted prices by 16 cents and 4 cents respectively, to $3.81 and $3.85.
Meanwhile, Shell's posted price for the 98-octane petrol remains at $3.87, after two rounds of increments on Tuesday.
SPC's price also remained unchanged, at $3.81.
Sinopec's posted price for its diesel — at $3.20 — after an increase of 26 cents on Wednesday, is currently the second lowest, with Caltex, Esso and Shell holding up the other end of the price spectrum — at $3.28.
Esso increased its posted price for diesel by 4 cents on Wednesday.
In response to AsiaOne's queries, Consumers Association of Singapore president Melvin Yong said on Wednesday that the consumer watchdog is "monitoring closely" the recent increase in fuel pump prices.
While he noted that the increments have come amidst the global rise in crude oil prices over the weekend, Yong urged fuel companies to "exercise restraint" in raising prices pre-emptively.
