This Week in Petroleum Summary November 20th, 2024 per EIA.GOV

This week's full report

Gasoline pump prices fell -1.8¢ for the week, and continues well below year ago levels, by -24.2¢, or -7.3%. Days supply rose to 23.4. For perspective... last year was 24.3 days. 

Inventories were mixed , with crude up +545K barrels; Distillates down -114K barrels; Gasoline stocks rose +2.1M barrels. Total Petroleum + products +SPR rose -4.4M barrels, with the SPR rising +1.4M barrels.

The total products is still +13.6M barrels ahead of year ago levels.
For those interested, the exports of Crude, Petroleum Products, Including Gasoline has far outweighed the imports, by this much, since March, 2022.

The current crack spread rose from last week's $17.95, to $18.64. Gasoline rose to $9.46, from last week's $8.99. Distillates rose to $9.18, compared to last week's $8.96.

The data sets continue to diverge with price movement in the coming days, within a narrow band, imo. +2.3¢ ~ +3.6¢. Supposedly, this will be blamed on missiles in Ukraine, causing price of oil to move.

Still, just as the past few weeks... nothing dramatic in the way of prices surging, or at least for now and should continue until the Christmas holiday, imo.
