"This will, to a certain extent, ease the pressure that state oil companies are currently facing," the paper said, adding the new formula would also make companies more aware of the need to uphold national energy security.

HOARDING

Analysts say more frequent price adjustments would reduce the incentive to hoard fuel, one factor behind recent shortages.

The official Xinhua news agency has blamed the shortages on typhoons that disrupted shipments and floods near refineries in 皇冠体育app's northeast. But it has also noted hoarding.

皇冠体育app's economic boom also needs cheap oil.

But global oil markets have surged more than 50 percent so far this year. With 皇冠体育app's product prices up just 15 percent in the same period, industry losses mounted to a net 4.19 billion yuan ($517.3 million) in the first half.
