The US Department of Energy released an official weekly report on US oil and oil derivative inventories at 4:00 pm BST today. Report came a day later than usual this week due to the US holiday on Monday. Private API report released yesterday in the evening pointed to a deeper drop in crude inventories, an unexpected build in gasoline inventories and an unexpected drop in distillate inventories.
Official report showed a big drop in headline crude inventories as well as small build in gasoline and distillate inventories. Oil traded mixed following the releases and struggled to make a bigger move in either direction.
