Tom, Yep, you missed it, I used to think it followed natural gas prices too but that is not the case unless there is a significant market lag that causes the price to lag about a year behind. Wellhead Gas prices have gone down considerably since last year. Someone mentioned that there was a force majure (sp) at two plants in India this fall. Tsunami effects?? guessing on this one.
Conspiracy theories aside. It may have to do with our free market again since Biodiesel production has taken a sharp increase in the US the additional demand on the market could be the cause. this is often the case with finite supplies introduced to new markets overnight - Prices move up.

Hello All, Did I miss the news? Has there been a significant increase in the price of methanol recently? I just got the bill for a delivery (two 55gal barrels). Previous price ( July): $2.60 USD/gallon; current bill: $3.54 USD/ gallon .... 35% increase in a few months? I'll call my supplier in a little while ... maybe it's just a billing mistake. I am just hoping someone has some info.
