Sounds like a false dawn for Brent crude.

The last time I read, the US didn’t have nearly enough storage space for strategic reserves. Has anyone built any?

Near me local pump prices are up over 30 cents a gallon in the last 2 weeks.
That’s well over a 15% jump.

The US SPR is 95% full.

In 2008 Pelosi was telling Bush to release oil reserves to lower fuel prices.
Boehner at that time said that the Dems were admitting that saturating oil into
the market would lower pricing. He was right but the RATs were caught in a
conundrum by their supporters and they were pissed for RATs admitting that.
I remember before that there was a story about storing oil off shore in tankers.
I never followed up on it but I do watch the market sometimes.

Bigger impact to WTI trading than Brent...Why the vast differential? Wouldn't competition between domestic users for WTI narrow the gap significantly?

Is that 10-day supply for National purposes or our Defense use?

The key for those is not to get greedy holding out for more, but to sell the future today and lock in that price.

Pipeline bottleneck getting oil out of Cushing. That capacity is maxed out now at current use.

In 2013, the United States consumed a total of 6.89 billion barrels of petroleum products, an average of 18.89 million barrels per day. This total includes about 0.32 billion barrels of biofuels.Actually it is a one day supply!

The “storage” is underground in the wells, exactly where odumbo wants it to remain.
