Choose the energy benchmark that matches the question.
Use WTI for US crude, Brent for the international waterborne market, Dubai for Middle East crude sold to Asia, and US natural gas for North American gas.
Dubai and wider oil benchmarks
Dubai includes monthly price history. The oil benchmark hub also covers Oman, Murban, Western Canadian Select and the OPEC basket with clearly defined price, supply and methodology views.
US natural gas
US natural gas is a separate monthly reference quoted per MMBtu. It is not an oil price, a world gas price or a household tariff. Use indexed charts when comparing its movement with barrel-based oil series.
