What WTI in SGD actually tells you
West Texas Intermediate is the United States light sweet crude benchmark, physically delivered at Cushing, Oklahoma, and the settlement reference for the world's most heavily traded crude oil futures contract. Because it settles in US dollars, every buyer, refiner and treasury desk in Singapore that reports in SGD has to translate it twice: once for the commodity move and once for the currency move.
That is why the SGD line above can rise on a day when the dollar headline for oil is unchanged. A weaker Singapore Dollar raises the local cost of the identical barrel; a stronger Singapore Dollar quietly subsidises it. Over a full budget year the currency leg frequently contributes as much to landed cost as the crude leg does.
How the Singapore Dollar itself affects the number
The Singapore Dollar is actively managed against the US dollar, managed against a trade-weighted basket. Day-to-day moves are usually contained, so the SGD price of Brent tracks the dollar price fairly closely, but policy shifts or step devaluations can reprice local oil costs quickly and without warning.
Singapore is a major refining and physical trading hub rather than a large crude producer. Brent quotes in SGD are used for cargo pricing, storage economics and refining margin calculations, so the local-currency benchmark matters commercially even though very little crude is produced domestically.
Reading the Brent–WTI spread
Brent normally carries a modest premium over WTI. The gap widens when US production and inventories build at Cushing faster than they can be exported, and narrows when Atlantic Basin supply tightens or freight economics change. Watching that spread in SGD rather than dollars makes the choice of pricing benchmark concrete: it shows the local money difference between indexing a contract to Brent versus WTI.
From barrel to pump
One barrel is 158.99 litres or 42 US gallons, so the per-litre and per-gallon figures above are the raw crude component only. Retail fuel additionally carries refining margin, distribution, retail margin, excise duty and VAT or sales tax, which in most markets add far more to the pump price than the crude itself. Treat the crude number as the floor, not the forecast.
