Catalog and Freshness

A broad catalog spanning crude oil, natural gas, refined products, futures, marine fuels, carbon markets, metals, forex, and selected energy-intelligence datasets.

Latest available values include source timestamps; refresh cadence varies by source, market hours, dataset, and plan.

Applications should compare source timestamps with their own tolerance for stale data. Do not infer one universal refresh interval from an individual dataset.
