Looking at your link, I'm inclined to think the price was fluctuating thru the day.

They post a daily price, not an hourly. It could have been a mistake as others suggested, or a fake. But I look at this site often. They don't vary it through the day.

If it was a mistake, understandable that they fixed it.
If it was real, understandable they adjusted it when able to find a buyer.
I doubt it was “fake”. That’s pretty obscure to plant a fake with that little consequence.

Yes, it comes from wells. _What_ comes from that site is posted as 6 different kinds of oil. What we peanut gallery types colloquially call “oil” is really a range of black liquid, some kinds more desirable/useful than others. Some well(s) is pumping out some pretty nasty stuff, apparently almost unusable to the point that some days perhaps nobody wants it (at risk of having to pay someone to take it away).

As for the “no ships moving”, seems “Tyler” didn’t notice he was looking at a “docked ships only” data set. We both saw the thread on that, which died pretty quick. Like I said, he’s frantically looking for a “doomsday has arrived!” scenario.
