Loko-Preise


Explanation:
Suggestion: "Die Stätten [depending on the context] stehen völlig unter dem Einfluss der Loko-Preise (Ölförderung)."

or: "... unter dem Einfluss der aktuellen Loko-Preise an den Warenbörsen (Ölförderung)."

or: "hängen völlig von den ... ab".

This is actually a financial term, you might be better off re-posting it under "Business/Finance".

"Loko-Preise" are the prices paid on commodity exchanges where oil products are traded.
