據管道&天然氣雜志網6月14日報道，EIA周三公布，上周美國原油庫存意外大幅增加，汽油和餾分油庫存增幅也超過預期。

據EIA稱，6月9日當周原油庫存增加790萬桶，而路透社調查的分析師預期為減少51萬桶。

數據公司Kpler美洲首席石油分析師Matt Smith表示，美國原油庫存大幅上升，為今天的油價漲勢踩下了剎車，而鑒于煉油廠的強勁運行，成品油的增加在某種程度上是不可避免的。

盡管煉油廠利用率在本周下降了2.1個百分點，但與近幾個月相比，利用率仍相對較高。

與此同時，煉油廠原油產量下降了6.1萬桶/日。

數據公布后，油價回吐漲幅，盤中稍早上漲每桶1美元后轉為小幅下跌。美國東部時間上午10點55分，布倫特原油期貨交易價格為74.26美元，美國原油期貨交易價格為69.34美元。

EIA表示，上周俄克拉何馬州庫欣的原油庫存增加了160萬桶，達到2021年6月以來的最高水平。根據數據顯示，庫欣庫存已連續八周增加。

EIA稱，美國本周汽油庫存增加了210萬桶，而分析師預計將增加31.6萬桶。包括柴油和取暖油在內的餾分油庫存本周增加210萬桶，而預期增加120萬桶。

Lipow oil Associates總裁Andrew Lipow表示，“庫存全面增加無疑對油市不利。延續了上個月我們在成品油市場看到的趨勢”。

根據數據顯示，美國原油凈進口量下降了約81萬桶/天。

EIA: US Crude Inventories Post Surprise Large Build, Fuel Stocks Rise

U.S. crude oil stockpiles posted a surprise large build last week, while gasoline and distillate inventories gained more than expected, the Energy Information Administration (EIA) said on Wednesday.

Crude inventories rose by 7.9 million barrels in the week to June 9, the EIA said, compared with analysts' expectations in a Reuters poll for a draw of 510,000 barrels.

"U.S. crude inventories have jumped higher, hitting the brakes on today's rally, while builds to the products are somewhat inevitable given strong refinery runs," said Matt Smith, lead oil analyst for the Americas at Kpler.

While refinery utilization rates dropped by 2.1 percentage points in the week, rates are still relatively elevated compared to recent months.

Meanwhile, refinery crude runs fell by 61,000 barrels per day (bbl/d).

Oil prices pared gains following the data and turned slightly negative after rising $1 per barrel earlier in the session. Brent crude futures traded at $74.26 and U.S. crude was at $69.34 at 10:55 a.m. EDT.

Crude stocks at the Cushing, Oklahoma, delivery hub rose by 1.6 million barrels last week, the EIA said, to the highest since June 2021. Cushing stockpiles have gained for eight weeks in a row, the data showed.

Gasoline stocks rose by 2.1 million barrels in the week, the EIA said, compared with analysts' expectations for a rise of 316,000 barrels.?

Distillate stockpiles, which include diesel and heating oil, rose by 2.1 million barrels in the week versus expectations for a rise of 1.2 million barrels, the EIA said.

"The across-the-board inventory increases are decidedly bearish for the oil markets," said Andrew Lipow, president of Lipow Oil Associates in Houston. "It continues the trend we've seen in the refined products over the last month."

Net U.S. crude imports dropped by about 810,000 bbl/d, the data showed.
