U.S. crude inventories fell -9.0M bbl (vs +2.1M bbl expected) WoW in the week ending Feb 13, 2026, alongside stronger refinery activity and firm product demand.
- Crude refinery inputs rose to 16.1M bpd (+77k bpd WoW) with utilization at 91.0%, indicating slightly stronger refining activity.
- Gasoline production increased to 9.4M bpd and distillate output rose +28k bpd to 4.9M bpd, showing firmer refined fuel production.
- Crude imports fell to 6.5M bpd (-281k bpd WoW) and averaged 6.3M bpd over four weeks (-1.3% YoY), pointing to somewhat lower import volumes versus last year.
- Commercial crude inventories declined -9.0M bbl to 419.8M bbl and remained ~5% below the five-year average, keeping crude stocks relatively tight seasonally.
- Gasoline inventories dropped -3.2M bbl and sit ~3% above the five-year average, while distillate inventories fell -4.6M bbl and are ~5% below average, indicating mixed product stock conditions.
- Propane/propylene inventories decreased -3.1M bbl but remain ~39% above the five-year average, showing still-elevated supply in that category.
- Total petroleum inventories fell -19.1M bbl WoW, and total products supplied averaged 21.2M bpd over four weeks (+4.1% YoY), with gasoline +1.5% YoY, distillate +2.5% YoY, and jet fuel -1.9% YoY, indicating overall stronger fuel demand with weaker aviation consumption.
U.S. commercial crude inventories rose +8.5M (vs +0.8M) bbl WoW to 428.8M bbl in the week ending Feb. 6, 2026, while refined product stocks were mixed and demand trends diverged YoY.
- U.S. crude oil refinery inputs averaged 16.0M bpd (-29k bpd WoW), with utilization at 89.4%, indicating slightly softer refinery runs compared with the prior week.
- Gasoline production increased to 9.1M bpd, and distillate fuel production rose +45k bpd to 4.9M bpd, pointing to firmer refined product output despite lower utilization.
