Hi @RicardoXavier,
Maybe you can try this code:
previous of the last date =
VAR _lastdate =
CALCULATE(
MAX( 'table'[START DATETIME] ),
ALLSELECTED( 'table'[START DATETIME] )
)
RETURN
MAXX(
CALCULATETABLE(
TOPN( 2, 'table', [START DATETIME], 0 ),
FILTER(
ALLEXCEPT( 'table', 'table'[OFM_NAME] ),
[START DATETIME] < _lastdate
)
),
[OIL_VOL_RATE]
)
Result:
Pbix in the end you can refer.

@RicardoXavier See my article on Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) which uses EARLIER: http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Mean-Time-Between-Failure-MTBF-and-Power-BI/ba-p/3395....
The basic pattern is:
Column =
VAR __Current = [Value]
VAR __PreviousDate = MAXX(FILTER('Table','Table'[Date] < EARLIER('Table'[Date])),[Date])
VAR __Previous = MAXX(FILTER('Table',[Date]=__PreviousDate),[Value])
RETURN
__Current - __Previous
