Oil and gas trading companies seek opportunities to improve process performance and achieve significant cost savings. Thus, artificial intelligence enables companies to enhance operational efficiencies with squeezed margins in today's market situation. AI is implemented in short sprints centering on a specific issue with manageable costs. When used in commodity trading, AI-powered technologies do not hold power to predict potential price movement or forecast a huge change in a specific commodity.

Rather, AI attempts to read and decode order flow coming into the exchanges. The system calculates inflowing data in milliseconds, analyzes it, and automatically generates high-speed and huge quantities of buy and sell orders.

In the current low-price market, oil and gas companies must be competitive and adopt AI technologies. AI profoundly impacts commodity trading by mining crucial data and providing cheap and readily available tools. AI-based decisions are calculated, precise, and unbiased, unlike those created by humans who are very emotional about the stock market.
