Этот рынок можно охарактеризовать как рынок с высокой концентрацией, что теоретически позволяет компаниям пользоваться рыночной властью. Кроме того, в большинстве субъектов РФ наблюдается ярко выраженное доминирование одной из вертикально интегрированных нефтяных компаний — зачастую это компания с наименьшим расстоянием до собственного нефтеперерабатывающего завода. С помощью пространственных эконометрических методов эмпирически получены следующие результаты. Во-первых, гипотеза о том, что АЗС конкурируют только с ближайшими станциями, не находит подтверждения. Во-вторых, найдены убедительные доказательства того, что конкуренция между АЗС наблюдается в пределах 5 км и ее интенсивность уменьшается с увеличением расстояния между ними. Кроме того, выявлены взаимосвязи между характеристиками и ценовым поведением отдельных АЗС. С одной стороны, более низкие цены на топливо на АЗС могут устанавливаться с целью привлечения большего количества клиентов, что позволит увеличить доход за счет продажи дополнительных товаров или услуг. С другой стороны, более высокие цены устанавливают бренды, для которых характерна высокая лояльность со стороны их покупателей, воспринимающих качество продукта как высокое, премиальное. Согласно полученным результатам, есть основания предполагать, что на розничные цены на топливо влияют такие характеристики АЗС, как название бренда, а также предоставляемые услуги. Показано, что названия брендов конкурирующих АЗС и распределение этих конкретных брендов в географическом пространстве являются более важными определяющими факторами розничной цены на бензин, чем количество станций-конкурентов.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>This paper explores the nature of retail gasoline market competition in the Russian Federation by applying a detailed panel structure database at the level of individual filling stations. This market is a highly concentrated one, which theoretically enables companies to exercise market power. Furthermore, in most of the administrative districts of the Russian Federation, one vertically integrated oil company will dominate; this is often the company located nearest to its own refinery. Spatial econometric analysis has yielded some interesting empirical results concerning how the local market is affected. First, there is no confirmation of the hypothesis that gas stations compete only with the nearest gas stations. Second, there is strong evidence that stations compete with other filling stations located within five kilometers, and the intensity of competition decreases as the distance between stations increases. A relationship between certain characteristics of filling stations and the price behavior of individual filling stations also became evident. These results suggest that retail fuel prices are influenced by such features of filling stations as brand name and services provided. The conclusion is that the brand name of competing stations and even the geographical distribution of these specific brands are more important determinants of the retail price of gasoline than the number of competing stations.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>нефтепродукты</kwd><kwd>пространственная эконометрика</kwd><kwd>дифференциация товара</kwd><kwd>АЗС</kwd><kwd>ВИНК</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>petroleum products</kwd><kwd>spatial econometrics</kwd><kwd>product differentiation</kwd><kwd>gas stations</kwd><kwd>vertically integrated oil companies</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Вакуленко Е.
