In US dollars of the day, not adjusted for inflation. Bonny Light usually trades within a few dollars of Brent.
High and low are monthly averages, so a day's extreme price sits outside them. The newest year covers only the months reported so far.
The two lines move together because, in every month, the Bank's exports are its production less a fixed 0.45 million barrels a day: the export line is arithmetic, not a measured volume. For production counted at the terminals, by month and stream, use the oil production dataset.
