How is WTI different from Brent crude?

WTI (West Texas Intermediate) is primarily influenced by U.S. production, storage levels, and domestic demand, while Brent reflects global supply-demand balances. Businesses with U.S. exposure often hedge with WTI, while Brent is more widely used as the global benchmark.

How does U.S. policy impact WTI prices?

WTI is highly responsive to U.S. energy policy, shale production, and export rules. Decisions on drilling permits, pipeline projects, or strategic petroleum reserves can all trigger sharp moves in WTI prices, making hedging essential for businesses tied to U.S. energy costs.

Is WTI relevant if my business is outside the U.S.?

Yes. WTI is one of the most traded oil benchmarks globally and often trades at a discount or premium to Brent. Even companies outside the U.S. can benefit by using WTI to diversify hedging strategies or gain exposure to North American pricing.

What risks can WTI hedging reduce?

WTI hedging helps shield businesses from storage fluctuations at Cushing, U.S. inventory data shocks, and seasonal demand shifts. It reduces the uncertainty around fuel costs and provides protection against unexpected price surges.
