• U.S. emergency oil reserves tumble to lowest since 1984

  HOUSTON (Reuters) -U.S. emergency crude oil stocks fell 8.4 million barrels last week to 434.1 million barrels, their lowest since October 1984, according to U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) data released on Monday.
  
  The release from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) in the week ended Sept. 9 was the steepest draw since May. It comprised of about 6.3 million barrels of sweet crude and around 2 million barrels of sour crude.
  
  President Joe Biden in March set a plan to release 1 million barrels per day over six months from the SPR to tackle high U.S. fuel prices, which have contributed to soaring inflation.

  WTI and Brent crude oil are up in early trading as the talks with Iran hit obstacles and further sanctions on Russia become a possibility, amid the existing tight supply. European leaders said they had “serious doubts” about Iran’s intentions to bring more barrels into the market, comments that were rejected by Tehran. Iran earlier this month sent its latest response to the European Union's proposed text to restore the 2015 agreement under which Tehran had restrained its nuclear program in exchange for relief from U.S., EU and U.N. economic sanctions, which western diplomats said was a “step backward”. Additionally, the G7 is looking to impose a price cap on Russia which would be set at a fair market value minus any risk premium resulting from its invasion of Ukraine.
