据普氏能源资讯2019年3月27日纽约报道，美国能源信息署（EIA）周三公布的统计数据显示，由于出口下降以及炼油厂逆风影响了利用率，上周美国原油库存量小幅上升。

EIA的统计数据显示，美国商业原油库存在3月22日结束的那周里增加了280万桶，当周总库存量增加到了4.4228亿桶。

尽管上周美国原油库存出现增加，但全国范围内的原油库存量相对于历史水平仍有所下降，五年来的平均赤字从前一周的1.6%扩大到了1.8%。

上周原油库存增加主要集中在美国墨西哥湾沿岸，上周该地区原油库存增加了458万桶，至2181万桶。上周美国中西部和西海岸原油库存分别减少了155万桶和100万桶，导致了全国范围内的原油库存增加放缓。值得注意的是，纽约商交所原油期货合约交割地俄克拉荷马州库欣(Cushing)上周原油库存增加54.1万桶，结束了连续几周的下跌。

US crude supply adds barrels as refinery runs, exports slow

US crude supply edged higher last week as exports dipped and refinery headwinds weighed on utilization rates, US Energy Information Administration data showed Wednesday.

Commercial crude inventories added 2.8 million barrels last week, bringing stocks to 442.28 million barrels for the week ended March 22, EIA data showed. Despite the build, nationwide inventories still fell relative to historic levels, and the deficit to the five-year average widened to 1.8% from 1.6% the week prior.

The crude build was concentrated in the US Gulf Coast, where stocks grew 4.58 million barrels on the week to 21.81 million barrels last week. Draws of 1.55 million and 1 million barrels in the Midwest and West Coast, respectively, blunted the nationwide crude build. Notably, stocks at Cushing, Oklahoma, the delivery point of the NYMEX crude contract, added 541,000 barrels, snapping back-to-back weeks of declines.
