Recent weekly reports from the Energy Information Administration show U.S. commercial crude oil inventories drawing down by 4.3 million barrels to 452.9 million for the week ending May 8, exceeding analyst expectations amid rising exports and refinery inputs. This follows sustained global supply pressures from Middle East disruptions that have boosted demand for U.S. barrels while also prompting releases from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, now near 384 million barrels. With the next inventory releases due May 20 and 27, and June 3, before the June 5 cutoff, market participants are assessing whether continued export strength and domestic production levels will extend the recent inventory declines.
