Additionally, energy carrier prices also faced a significant increase this week. The price of natural gas reached $3.5 per million BTU, indicating a 15 percent increase compared to last week. This price increase is justified by the reduction in supply and the increase in demand in the global market.
Technical and Economic Aspects
From a technical perspective, brokers this week examined new transportation routes and optimized loading and unloading processes.
