Price_of_Oil

 What is the current price of oil? I keep asking this same question every day. Help me identify a site I can go to any time on this matter...

Here’s the quick answer, Louise:  

Brent crude is currently around $91.30 and WTI around $83–88 per barrel, depending on the source and update frequency. 

If you want one reliable site you can check every day, the most complete and easiest to read is OilPrice.com, which updates every few minutes.
