Integer Research has launched a monthly diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) price reporting service called DEF Tracker. The service has been launched in response to requests from industry stakeholders and is a reflection of increasing trading activity and more frequent contract settlements in the DEF market.

DEF Tracker includes DEF price benchmarks and in-depth analysis of market movements. Price references cover DEF delivered in tote, bulk, and 2.5-gallon jug formats in six major metropolitan areas: Los Angeles CA; Houston TX; New York NY; Cincinnati OH; Chicago IL; and Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

In addition, DEF Tracker provides DEF pump pricing at truckstops and number of locations in every US state and Canadian province offering the facility.

In November 2011, the average price of DEF at the pump reached $2.73 per gallon across the United States, according to DEF Tracker. The price at the pump fell in 25, or 58%, of the 43 US states offering the facility between October and November, however, the average across the nation increased by three cents per gallon.

There are now four truckstops offering DEF at the pump in Canada, all operated by Pilot Flying J. The price at these locations was Canadian $0.80 per liter in November.
