How to calculate the gas oil to polyethylene ratio
Gas Oil to Polyethylene ratio = Gas Oil price per 100 Tonnes ÷ Polyethylene price per Metric Ton
The two legs use different units, so the result is a rate — Metric Tons of polyethylene per 100 Tonnes of gas oil — rather than a plain count.
Worked example, live prices: $1,259.00 ÷ $7,856.00 = 0.1603. The inverse is 6.240.
