- US crude oil in inventory: 539.2 million bbls;
- at 18% above the five-year-average, this is the highest I've seen, on a percentage basis;
- how will shutting down the DAPL affect this;
- the five-year average is already very "fat"
- change week-over-week: increased by a significant 5.7 million bbls
- refineries are operating at 77.5% of capacity; operating at historic lows;
- imports: crude oil imports averaged 7.4 million bpd which is a whopping increase of 1.4 million bpd -- more than double of what I had been seeing
- over the past four weeks, crude oil imports had averaged about 6.6 million bpd but that average is going to trend high
- imports are still 8.5% less than the same four-week period last year
- oil markets starving for heavy oil from Russia, Saudi Arabia; link here;
- jet fuel supplied: down 57.2% same same four-week period last year
