Crude inventories surge by nearly 8 million barrels


Commercial crude oil stocks in the United States surged to nearly 8 million barrels last week, overwhelming the decline in gasoline and other refined products.

The inventory level of the total commercial oil supply increased by 3.9 million barrels, ending a record long walk with a four-week decline in total supply.

Weekly data from the US Department of Energy reduced commercial crude oil by 7.7 million barrels and gasoline supply by 2.8 million barrels.

Total US crude oil production is at a record high of 12.6 million barrels per day.

US crude oil exports declined nearly one million barrels a day last week, contributing to an increase in the supply of crude oil in the cellar. In addition, oil refineries in the United States have fewer crude oil production than usual, as they have produced less than last week.
