WTI vs Brent

WTI is the US benchmark, priced at Cushing, Oklahoma. Brent comes from the North Sea and is the reference for most seaborne crude traded internationally. Both are light and sweet, but Brent usually trades at a premium because it can reach global markets by ship, while WTI depends on US pipelines and storage.
