FreightWaves releases energy commodity volumes and prices

Energy markets have been the largest drivers of the recent industrial economic boom. America has become the world’s largest producer of crude oil in the past year. The energy market impacts transportation in multiple ways from shipping of raw products and their derivatives to direct costs of hauling any other freight with the price of diesel. For this reason, we have added a slew of energy-based measures including the following:
