Crude Oil Inventory Charts: US, Cushing, Supply and Demand
Crude oil storage tells you how much oil the market is carrying relative to demand. The national commercial total captures the broad balance; the Cushing hub captures local tightness at the NYMEX WTI delivery point; and the Strategic Petroleum Reserve captures the sovereign buffer behind it all. Alongside those stocks, global demand and production measure the flows that fill and empty them. The inventory curves update weekly and are shown alongside WTI and Brent; the global flows update monthly from the EIA Short-Term Energy Outlook.
