How we forecast
FuelRadar has helped Australian drivers find cheaper fuel since 2020. Each estimate starts from Darwin's reported daily city averages and how they have moved recently. A city daily average is FuelRadar's scheduled morning average of the city's reported station prices, the figure this page quotes for every capital. Where a city has a regular price cycle, the estimate projects that cycle; elsewhere it follows the recent trend, blended with the latest dated wholesale price change. These are Darwin city averages, not a separate Sandover forecast. The likely range widens with each day ahead.
Next-day estimates missed by 0.4 c/L on average, further off than assuming prices stay the same (0.4 c/L).

Forecast questions
When will P95 prices go down in Sandover?
Estimate only: P95 in Sandover is estimated to change little, to 251.9 c/L by Sat 21 Nov (likely 247.1–267.3), from 252.4 c/L reported Sat 14 Nov. Past 7-day estimates missed by about 4.5 c/L on average, only slightly less than assuming prices stay the same (4.7 c/L). The dated 30-day forecast shows a likely range, not a promised low date. Check current station prices before changing when you fill.
What is the best day to buy P95 in Sandover?
There is no fixed best day for Sandover. Compare current reported station prices and their update times. A recent high or a lower estimate does not confirm a cheaper date.
How accurate is FuelRadar Australia's P95 price outlook?
Not accurate enough yet to tell you to fill or wait, so we don't. From 10 Oct to 8 Nov our next-day P95 forecasts for Darwin were off by 0.4 c/L on average over 30 days checked. Assuming prices wouldn't move was closer (0.4 c/L).
Do higher prices mean they will fall soon?
A recent high does not confirm a turnaround. Compare the reported movement with the estimated range. If that range still includes today's price, a fall is not established. Check current station prices before deciding to wait.
How often is the outlook updated?
We update the forecast overnight. For anything that changed today, check the map.
