Oil to Natural Gas Price Ratio


Lots of discussion with a few members of the commentariat at Calculated Risk regarding the extreme nature of the price ratio between oil and natural gas so I decided to hunt up some data and see just what we were talking about.



The price behavior on a linear plot over the same time.



...and on a log plot due to the disparity of oil and gas when displayed on a common axis.


Data source:
EIA time series US Energy Information Administration

Maybe energy isn't as fungible as I assert. Thanks for the hard work.
