1978-1988 distillate fuel oil survey: Final report
The New Hampshire Governor's Energy Office (GEO) continued its fuel price survey program during the 1987/endash/1988 heating season. The survey was first conducted in 1976. As in the previous three years, the survey was supported with a small grant from the US Department of Energy, Energy Information Administration (EIA). The collected data was shared with that agency, which at the request of the US Congress, has monitored the supply and price of home heating oil. The effort has been concentrated in those areas, such as the Northeast, which are heavily dependent on oil as a home heating fuel. It appears that this will be the final year that this program is conducted by the EIA. The survey is conducted each month of the year, although EIA funds cover only the months of October through May when significantly more data is collected with increased frequency. Thirty-nine full service fuel oil dealers are asked their full service, and credit price of their number two home heating oil. They are also asked the amount of their prompt payment or cash discount, and their inventory levels. A sub sample is asked to provide their wholesale price if they make such sales to other retail dealers. Thirteen dealers are asked to supply GEO their retail and wholesale prices on a more frequent basis during the heating season. They are called twice each month in October, November, March, April and May and once each week in the three coldest months, December, January and February, when demand for heating reaches its peak. 12 figs., 1 tab.
