These use the settled prices as posted online by CME Group each Friday and on the first calendar day of each month. We have used the settled front month price on the date of the strip as the price in the current month. For gas, an average for each calendar year is also provided, and the strip prices shown for NGLs are, in fact, the strip prices for oil. By default in PHDwin, the final price will be used for all subsequent times. Please note that we have tried to be diligent, but we cannot guarantee that these figures are reliable.
