Propane prices rise with crude and gas costs in West Virginia
Propane costs track crude with barrels around 36.70 a barrel versus 21.85 a year ago. Natural gas has surged about 400 percent to 8.10 per thousand cubic feet from 2.35. Local buyers report propane from Ferrell Gas at 2.18 per gallon and 2.10 per gallon from Highland Propane, while the national average sits at 1.50 per gallon. Officials say there is no price gouging and note logistics and a cold winter push costs higher in West Virginia.
