Crude Oil Prices Rally on Bullish EIA Report

Crude oil prices today rallied on a bullish weekly EIA (Environmental Impact Assessment) report. The EIA reported that U.S. crude oil inventories fell sharply by -9.603 million bbl in the week ended June 23, which was a much larger drop than expectations of a -1.5 million bbl decline. Also, gasoline inventories rose +603,000 bbls, less than expectations for a +1.0 million bbl rise. Distillate inventories rose by +123,000 bbl, less than expectations of +900,000 bbl.

Crude oil prices were undercut by hawkish comments today by Fed Chair Powell, ECB President Lagarde, and BOE Governor Bailey. Crude oil prices are also being undercut by today’s +0.4% rally in the dollar index.

Oil prices continue to be undercut by concern about weaker Chinese energy demand. China’s National Petroleum Corp (CNPC), China’s largest oil and gas producer, last Tuesday, cut its 2023 China crude oil demand forecast to +3.5% to 740 MMT from a March forecast of +5.1% to 756 MMT. In another sign of weak Chinese oil demand, analytics firm Kpler recently reported that China’s crude oil stockpiles rose to a 2-year high in May of 966 million bbl, well above the five-year average of 858 million bbl.

Crude prices jumped earlier this month after OPEC+ on June 4 agreed to maintain its crude production levels. However, Saudi Arabia said it will voluntarily cut its crude output by 1 million bpd starting in July, and Saudi Energy Minister Price Abdulaziz bin Salman said he “will do whatever is necessary to bring stability to the oil market.” He also said that next month’s additional cuts could be extended, but they will keep the market “in suspense” about whether this will happen. OPEC (Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries) May crude production fell -500,00 bpd to a 16-month low of 28.26 million bpd.

Thursday’s EIA report showed that (1) U.S. crude oil inventories as of June 23 were -1.4% below the seasonal 5-year average, (2) gasoline inventories were -6.8% below the seasonal 5-year average, and (3) distillate inventories were -14.4% below the 5-year seasonal average. U.S. crude oil production in the week ended June 23 was unchanged at 12.2 million bpd, just mildly below the 3-year high of 12.4 million bpd posted in the week ended June 9. U.S. crude oil production is well below the Feb-2020 record-high of 13.1 million bpd.

Baker Hughes reported last Friday that active U.S. oil rigs in the week ended June 23 fell by -6 to a 1-1/4 year low of 546 rigs. That is well below the 3-1/4 year high of 627 rigs posted on December 2, 2022. U.S. active oil rigs have more than tripled from the 18-year low of 172 rigs seen in Aug 2020, signaling an increase in U.S. crude oil production capacity.
