U.S. crude inventories, including the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, fell by a record 17.8 million barrels last week, according to Department of Energy data. The drop included a 9.9 million-barrel draw from the SPR. Through May 20, the U.S. had pulled about 50 million barrels from the reserve.

The massive drawdowns continue API Inventory Moves crude -9.1 million (exp. -3.4 million) gasoline -5.8 million distillates -1.0 million Cushing -1.4 million SPR actual -9.9 million #MacroEdge

@macroedgeres

Largest weekly drawdown from the SPR… on record!

@hfi_research

API undercounted the draws last week, so EIA will report lower draws for the 3 below. Crude is between -7 to -8. Gasoline will be slightly lower.

the DRAIN of U.S. petroleum inventories continues

@tomkloza

SPR drawdown of nearly 10-million barrels of crude will dominate tomorrow's EIA report. API showing a 5.8-million barrel draw in gasoline could spook those RBOB sellers this week. Distillate draw of ~1-million bbl puts us closer to pivotal

@hfi_research

Looks like the largest crude draw in history.

Oil Prices Extend Decline After Huge Inventory Draws, Record SPR Drain

@oilandenergy

$100+ oil hasn't led to demand destruction in the U.S. so far - quite the contrary: EIA data: Total products supplied—a proxy for U.S. oil demand—rose to an average of 20.2 million barrels per day over the last four weeks, up 3.1% compared

@javierblas

BREAKING: US total crude inventories fell last week ~17.8 million barrels (that's commercial and SPR stocks combined). On that basis, it's the largest weekly fall since data is available starting in 1982.

@macroedgeres

Total crude (spr and commercial crude) -17.9Mb Explains the Pakistani headline #MacroEdge

@zerohedge

The US SPR drained a record 9.9 million barrels in the past week. 10% of the US strategic reserve has been drained since the war started, mostly via exports to Asia
