Why it matters
These weekly figures (from the Energy Information Administration, the American Petroleum Institute and rig counts) are the most timely measure of supply and demand in the world's largest oil market, and they move oil and gas prices on release. A larger build in stocks than expected usually pushes prices down.
How it is calculated
Refiners, storage terminals and pipelines report their holdings; the release shows the change from the previous week in barrels (or cubic feet for gas). Rig counts tally drilling rigs in operation.
What changes mean
- A draw (fall) in crude stocks when a build was expected is bullish for oil.
- Gasoline and distillate stocks show demand from drivers and industry.
- Cushing, Oklahoma is the delivery point of WTI futures; low stocks there tighten the market.
A short history
The US government began collecting weekly petroleum data after the oil crises of the 1970s; Baker Hughes has published its rig count since 1944.
