The price of crude oil is one of the most important indicators of the global economy, which is monitored by policymakers, producers, consumers, and participants in financial markets. Oil prices are changing course depending on economic conditions, which is why it is so volatile. The knowledge of researchers, policymakers, and stakeholders about the impact of crises on the oil market provides better control over its negative consequences. Studies show that as a result of various crises, the Volatility Persistence of the oil market is very high. Therefore, it makes sense to consider the hypothesis of a unit root in the Volatility shocks of this market. In the present study, the long-term Volatility Persistence shocks due to the Covid-19 epidemic crisis in the Brent and WTI oil markets, which are the two criteria for determining global oil prices, are investigated using a test proposed by Lee and Yu (2010). The results of this study indicate the existence of a unit root in oil market turbulence. Therefore, the oil market and the economic climate are long-term affected by the effects of this crisis. This can have a significant impact on the revenues of exporting countries and investors in the crude oil sector. Thus, market players and governments need to assess the consequences of this crisis more carefully

Due to the strategic role of volatility and instability of crude oil prices and their effects on all countries of the world, different methods of modeling and forecasting are necessary. Over the past two decades, an extensive literature has emerged on various approaches to empirically modeling volatility in the crude oil market. In this research, WTI crude oil price volatility modeling, which is one of the most important types of crude oil in the market of this strategic commodity, is examined with six flexible stochastic volatility (SV) models. Then the experimental performance of these models is compared with each other using Bayesian methods. The findings of this study show that adding one jump in efficiency and leverage effect to the stochastic volatility (SVLJ) model greatly improves its performance compared to other models. According to the findings of this model, the stability of volatility in the WTI market is very high and on average one jump occurs in this market every year. However, this model shows that in 2020, two jumps in WTI returns occurred in April and May, which is a unique event. In addition, the correlation between the return jump component and the volatility jump (Merton correlation jump) is not confirmed in the WTI data. Also, due to the negative leverage effect, negative shocks have stronger volatility effects than positive shocks in the crude oil market.
