RE:RE:EIA Crude +8.7, Gasoline +0.75, Dist -1 There is no new oil LOL.
They changed the way they report crude production this summer, and as a result, it also works into inventories.
NGL and light condensates and blended crude are now counted as crude oil.
This is why US production has reportedly spiked even though shale oil depletes, and wells become more light and gassy. It makes sense for the government to continue to report high production to help keep prices in check.
In the end, and to refiners, crude quality matters.
