How to calculate the methanol to gas oil ratio
Methanol to Gas Oil ratio = Methanol price per Metric Ton ÷ Gas Oil price per 100 Tonnes
The two legs use different units, so the result is a rate — 100 Tonness of gas oil per Metric Ton of methanol — rather than a plain count.
Worked example, live prices: $2,861.00 ÷ $1,265.20 = 2.261. The inverse is 0.4422.
