EIA delays US crude production data after technical glitch
AI Market Summary
The EIA's technical delay in publishing granular US crude production, trade, and state-level output data removes a key supply signal for several weeks, increasing uncertainty in an already tight market with the SPR at a 44-year low and Hormuz disruptions. With less visibility into US supply dynamics, risk premia can rise, even as the Weekly Petroleum Status Report continues to provide headline inventory and supply readings.

A technical glitch has delayed the EIA’s release of U.S. oil production data, leaving traders and policymakers without the government’s most detailed official readings for at least several weeks. The gap covers U.S. crude output, imports, exports and state-level production. With the Strategic Petroleum Reserve at a 44-year low and Strait of Hormuz shipping still disrupted by the U.S.-Iran conflict, the missing data is seen as especially important. The Weekly Petroleum Status Report will continue to provide top-line inventory and supply figures, so the market will still have broad guidance.
