It's a combination of things.

Uncertainty about Iran's nuclear emissions have created an unstability in the middle eastern oil producing countries which in turn has affected crude oil prices.


Many refineries have shut down, retooling to produce cleaner-blend gasoline. So with those refineries shutting down to try and convert their production over to cleaner blend gasolines, less gasoline is being produced right now.

The approaching driving season is just around the corner.

Put these three things together and add in the fact that many of these foreign oil producing countries are taking advantage of our dependance on their oil and just manipulate prices because of the middle eastern situation, and you have a recipe for rising gas/oil prices.
