Argus International LPG Forward Curves
Overview
The Argus International LPG Forward Curves service is a powerful, independent market valuation tool used to support investment and trading decisions in LPG markets across Europe, Americas and Asia.
Argus produces forward price curves that are distinct from the forward price assessments published in Argus market reports.
Participants in energy and related commodity markets need to see accurate forward prices from a source without distortion or bias. Our clients act with confidence because our forward curves are built from unbiased and transparent industry-specific methodologies that produce representative market values free from distortion.
