US could release emergency diesel stocks

DIESEL

US could release stocks from the Northeast Home Heating Oil Reserve if the supply issues deteriorate.

  • The Oil Reserve only holds 1mbbls of diesel which is equivalent to a single days’ worth of supply for the region.
  • EIA data last week showed distillate inventories of 22.46mbbls in PADD1 just slightly higher by 1.1mbbls versus the record low the previous week. This compares to the 5-year range between about 32mbbls and 54mbbls.
