受伊朗战争引发全球油价飙升影响，美国汽油价格曾一度冲高，当地时间周四，全国汽油均价终于回落至每加仑3.99美元，跌破4美元关口，为近3个月来首次。据美国汽车协会（AAA）数据，这一价格也是自3月30日以来的最低水平。
尽管自战争爆发以来，汽油价格仍累计上涨了逾1美元，但近期随着市场预期美伊将达成初步协议结束冲突、原油价格回落，汽油价格已连续几周出现下跌。
美伊两国达成的结束战争的谅解备忘录将重新开放霍尔木兹海峡——这一全球五分之一石油供应常规途经的关键航道。自2月28日战争爆发以来，该航道几乎完全关闭，推高了全球油气价格。
特朗普先生周三正式签署该协议后，已有更多船只开始通过该海峡，截至目前至少已有10艘商业船舶完成了航道通行。
国际原油基准布伦特原油周四下跌1.4%，收于每桶78.46美元；美国原油基准西德克萨斯中质原油（WTI）下跌2.2%，收于每桶75.10美元。
汽油价格会持续下跌吗？
燃油价格追踪平台GasBuddy的石油专家帕特里克·德汉本周在一份报告中表示，“只要局势不出现大幅逆转，且美伊双方继续朝着积极方向推进”，美国全国汽油均价有望继续走低。
他预计，根据中东局势发展情况，普通汽油价格有望在今年年底或2027年初跌破每加仑3美元。

“有一点可以加快这一进程：伊朗将获准重新在国际市场销售石油，这将加快全球原油库存的恢复速度，”他在发给CBS新闻的电子邮件中说道。

Gas prices fall below $4 a gallon for the first time in nearly 3 months

Gasoline prices in the U.S. fell below $4 a gallon on Thursday for the first time in nearly three months, after surging as global oil prices shot up amid the war in Iran.
The national average for a gallon of gas dropped to $3.99, the lowest level since March 30, according to AAA. Gas prices are still up by more than a dollar since the war started, but have receded in recent weeks as crude prices dropped in expectation of a preliminary deal between the U.S. and Iran to end the conflict.
A memorandum of understanding between the countries to end the war reopens the Strait of Hormuz, a vital waterway through which one-fifth of the world’s oil supply normally flows. The passage has been virtually closed since the war began on Feb. 28, driving up oil and gas prices.
More ships began moving through the strait after Mr. Trump formally signed the agreement on Wednesday, with at least 10 commercial vessels traversing the waterway.
Brent crude, the international standard, sank 1.4% on Thursday to $78.46 a barrel, while West Texas Intermediate, the U.S. benchmark, was down 2.2% to $75.10 a barrel.
Will gas prices keep dropping?
Patrick De Haan, a petroleum expert at GasBuddy, said in a report this week that the national average for gas could continue to decline, “provided there isn’t a drastic reversal and the U.S. and Iran continue moving in a positive direction.”
He estimates that the cost of regular gas could fall below $3 a gallon by the end of this year or in early 2027, depending on how the situation in the Middle East unfolds.

“One note that could improve the timeline is that Iran is allowed to sell oil on markets again, which could speed up the recovery for global oil inventories,” he told CBS News in an email.
