The U.S. crude inventory balance fell by 4.383M barrels during the week ended Oct. 13, according to the API. That contrasted with a 12.94M jump in the prior week to Oct. 6 led largely by a sharp decline in exports.
Aside from that balance, the API also noted a 1.005M barrel decline at the Cushing, Oklahoma delivery point for U.S. crude, versus the previous week’s draw of 0.547M. Cushing storage levels have dropped drastically this year, prompting concerns they might reach such critical lows to complicate operations at the storage hub.
On the fuel side, the petroleum trade group reported a gasoline inventory slide of 1.578M barrels and distillate stock drop of 0.612M barrels. In the prior week, gasoline saw a 3.645-M barrel build while distillates experienced a 3.535M drop.
Hundreds of people were killed by a strike at a hospital in Gaza City on Tuesday night where thousands of civilians had been sheltering.
The Gazan health authorities said the blast had been caused by an Israeli airstrike; the Israel Defense Forces said it was caused by a rocket fired by a Palestinian armed group that malfunctioned after launching. Neither assertion could be immediately verified.
