Oil price: latest Brent and WTI crude prices

115.22 | October 20, 2026 | October 19, 2026 | 107.89 | October 20, 2026 | October 19, 2026 | October 20, 2026 — Brent crude is quoted at 115.22 USD per barrel on October 20, 2026.

The series moved lower versus the prior data point: Brent recorded a change of -3.03% compared with October 19, 2026. The drop is measurable and larger than WTI’s day-on-day move.

WTI sits at 107.89 USD per barrel on October 20, 2026 and shows a change of -1.93% compared with October 19, 2026. The two benchmarks are both down on the same date, but Brent’s percentage change is the larger of the two.

Reported figures come from the U.S. Energy Information Administration and reflect the spot-price snapshot for October 20, 2026; the juxtaposition of Brent’s -3.03% and WTI’s -1.93% is the clearest signal in this set. A modest editorial observation: the wider fall in Brent relative to WTI is consistent with episodes where headline risks weigh more on the European benchmark.
