Unit: US dollars per barrel. The Europe Brent spot price (free on board), one price a day. Latest data as of 2026-11-03. The Energy Information Administration publishes this series about a week behind, so the latest day shown can be several days old.
Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration (spot prices, public domain). One price a day, so the open, high, low and close of a day are the same; the yearly high and low are the highest and lowest daily price. The average is the mean of the daily prices, and the change compares one period’s close with the previous period’s close.
