Total motor gasoline inventories increased by 1.9 million barrels last week, and are near the lower boundary of the average range. Both finished gasoline inventories and gasoline blending components
inventories increased last week.

Distillate fuel inventories declined by 200,000 barrels, and are near the lower boundary of the average range for this time of year. Propane/propylene inventories fell last week and remain below the lower limit of the average range.

Total commercial petroleum inventories increased by 9.7 million barrels last week, and are in the middle of average range for this time of year.
