   DAVENPORT, FL (DTN) -- East Coast (PADD 1) jet fuel inventories rebounded to 
their highest level since mid-September during the week ended November 6, while

declined, according to Energy Information Administration (EIA) data released 
Thursday (11/12).

   Jet fuel inventories rose by 1.2 million bbl to 10.4 million bbl from 9.2 
million bbl the previous week, returning above the 10 million bbl mark. The 
increase also placed stocks 1.2 million bbl above the corresponding 2025 level.

   Distillate fuel inventories also continued to recover, climbing by 1.2 
million bbl to 23.8 million bbl from 22.6 million bbl the previous week. 
Despite two consecutive weekly increases, supplies remained 3.3 million bbl 
below the 27.1 million bbl recorded during the comparable period of 2025.

   The latest distillate build was concentrated in the northern East Coast, 
with New England inventories increasing by 600,000 bbl to 3.3 million bbl and 
Central Atlantic stocks rising by the same amount to 11.4 million bbl. Lower 
Atlantic supplies were unchanged at 9.1 million bbl.

   In contrast, gasoline inventories fell by 900,000 bbl to 51.2 million bbl 
from 52.1 million bbl the previous week, extending the prior week's 1.8 million 
bbl draw. Despite the combined 2.7 million bbl decline over two weeks, gasoline 
stocks remained 1.8 million bbl above the 49.4 million bbl reported during the 
corresponding week of 2025.

   Meanwhile, East Coast crude oil inventories edged up by 100,000 bbl to 8.2 
million bbl from 8.1 million bbl the previous week, slightly below the 8.3 
million bbl recorded in early November 2025. Crude oil imports declined by 
229,000 bpd to 470,000 bpd from 699,000 bpd.

   East Coast refinery utilization increased to 93.1% of operable capacity from 
89.5% the previous week, while crude oil inputs rose by 22,000 bpd to 850,000
