WTI Crude vs. Brent Crude Oil


By Keith Kohl

Monday, September 27th, 2010

It's been a long time coming, but Brent crude may finally top the light sweet crude from Texas — known as Western Texas Intermediate — as the global oil benchmark.
Typically, WTI crude from Cushing, Oklahoma, holds a higher price than Brent crude.

WTI is both lighter and sweeter, containing about 0.24% sulfur. Brent crude has about 0.37% sulfur and is still classified as a sweet crude.
