The Problem

In order to keep their audience informed throughout the day, Rigzone was in search of a commodities data provider that could supply them with the energy data they needed to implement an oil price chart on their website containing prices for Brent Crude, WTI Crude, and Natural Gas.

The Solution

Rigzone came across Barchart and discovered that they could provide them with the energy data they needed in order to ensure their audience is as informed as possible on the market throughout the day. Barchart helped Rigzone create a custom oil price widget through Barchart OnDemand’s getQuote API so they can display delayed prices on their website for all of the energies they were looking for.

“Barchart’s oil price data was just what we were looking for to make sure our readers are up-to-speed with the current state of the market,” said Ashleigh Pirie, Head of Marketing and Product. “Not only did Barchart work to ensure we had the best solution possible, they went the extra mile to make sure the solution was affordable and fit our needs exactly,” added Pirie.

“It is our priority at Barchart to provide our clients with a solution that not only works technically, but one that fits each of their specific needs,” said Mark Haraburda, CEO of Barchart. “While working with Rigzone, it was our pleasure to explore all available options in order to find the best, most affordable solution for them,” added Haraburda.

With a dynamic, hosted commodities solution packed with reliable energy data, Rigzone can now provide their audience of over 4.3 million members with guarantee that they will stay in-the-know when it comes to oil prices.
