bunkerInsightsGetFuturesEstimates

Forward price scenario for LFO at Singapore, for the 6th nearest futures contract month. Used for longer-range planning: understanding where prices are likely to sit several months ahead, based on crude oil futures curves. contract steps monthly from the nearest expiry, so contract 6 looks roughly five months out from the request date.
