Oil and Gas Prices have Plummeted Worldwide Following Financial Crash


Crude oil prices have tanked as result of the global financial issues which have meant that the Dow Jones fell more than 1175 points over the month of February – which is a figure which is the biggest drop since the well-documented 2008 financial crisis. Oil and gas prices over the world have lowered significantly as governments and countries have scrambled to sell these assets, with US crude oil dropping to $63.65 per barrel as result.

Data from the Brent Curve have subsequently shown that this is a fall of 1.98%, and the Brent Curve can be viewed on oil and gas reservoir evaluation specialist ERCE’s website. This is a significant drop for American-owned crude oil, and other suppliers across the world have fared even worse than the US.

Canadian crude dropped by a staggering 3.26% in February 2018 to $34.38 per barrel. West Texas Intermediate owned crude oil fared slightly better, but experienced a drop of 0.56% - now standing at $61.90 per barrel.
