What are Delivered Oil Indices?

Show/hide

Delivered oil indices combine real-time OTC oil pricing with freight costs to calculate destination‑specific delivered prices. By integrating tanker route economics, freight volatility and handling assumptions, these indices give a clearer picture of what a barrel is actually worth once delivery costs are included, not just its benchmark price. This helps traders and risk managers assess arbitrage, netbacks and delivered margins with far greater accuracy.
