On October 27, 2025, the Brent crude oil price stood at 65.14 U.S. dollars per barrel, compared to 61.31 U.S. dollars for WTI oil and 67.54 U.S. dollars for the OPEC basket. Oil prices rose slightly that week.Europe's Brent crude oil, the U.S. WTI crude oil, and OPEC's basket are three of the most important benchmarks used by traders as reference for global oil and gasoline prices. Lowest ever oil prices during coronavirus pandemic In 2020, the coronavirus pandemic resulted in crude oil prices hitting a major slump as oil demand drastically declined following lockdowns and travel restrictions. Initial outlooks and uncertainty surrounding the course of the pandemic brought about a disagreement between two of the largest oil producers, Russia and Saudi Arabia, in early March. Bilateral talks between global oil producers ended in agreement on April 13th, with promises to cut petroleum output and hopes rising that these might help stabilize the oil price in the coming weeks. However, with storage facilities and oil tankers quickly filling up, fears grew over where to store excess oil, leading to benchmark prices seeing record negative prices between April 20 and April 22, 2020. How crude oil prices are determined As with most commodities, crude oil prices are impacted by supply and demand, as well as inventories and market sentiment. However, as oil is most often traded in future contracts (where a contract is agreed upon while product delivery will follow in the next two to three months), market speculation is one of the principal determinants for oil prices. Traders make conclusions on how production output and consumer demand will likely develop over the coming months, leaving room for uncertainty. Spot prices differ from futures in so far as they reflect the current market price of a commodity.

OECD Global Crude Oil Imports Prices

Regional and Temporal Trends

By OECD [source]

About this dataset

This dataset contains global crude oil import prices from the OECD. It provides important insight into international trading of oil and its related products, enabling users to analyse market trends and compare prices across different countries. This data is essential for understanding the development of different economies, as well as their dependence on crude oil imports. Through analysis of this dataset, users can understand the role that regional and global factors play in impacting global crude oil import prices over time. The dataset includes columns tracking country/region of origin (LOCATION), indicator measured (INDICATOR), subject tracked (SUBJECT), measure taken (MEASURE), frequency interval (FREQUENCY), time period covered (TIME) as well as numerical value and flag codes associated with the data captured in each row. This invaluable source is perfect for researchers looking to take a deep dive into international markets over time or academics studying the complexities surrounding trade in the energy sector!

How to use the dataset

This dataset is a great resource for anyone looking to analyze the current and historical prices of crude oil imports from the OECD. The data contains prices from member countries of the OECD and is updated regularly. This dataset can be used to study long term trends in price as well as explore differences between countries with different levels of crude oil import demand.

• In order to make use of this dataset, it’s important to familiarize yourself with the column names and descriptions. The first column is LOCATION which indicates which country or region the data applies to. INDICATOR indicates what information is being displayed (e.g., import market share, import value, etc.). SUBJECT describes what category that metric falls into (e.g., fuel energy). MEASURE tells you whether an amount is expressed in a unit or currency while FREQUENCY says how often data has been collected: monthly, quarterly or annually (average monthly/quarterly/annual etc..). TIME displays measure period start date in year-month format and Value denotes numerical value for each row's measurement respectively while flag codes indicate if any values are estimates or outlier measurements that should be examined further before using them

• Using this understanding, one could filter their search by creating filters on these columns accordingly depending on their research topic such as – pulling all records for China for Q4 2019 - then apply sorting on “VALUE” column based on imported measurements have become cheaper during given time frame etc.. Additionally formulas like SUMIFS() can also be used across multiple columns available within this agreement document at same time such as – total Imports Value from India & Japan combined during May 2019 till October 2020 – based upon bringing together Matching condition criteria met across few columns where needed at same time . As such this dataset provides flexible solutions which potentially allow us to explore patterns related either just single country's current trends -or- cross references since global side-by-side evaluation possible here featuring more than just one nation alone too ...........
