WTI Crude Oil Daily Analysis – November 22, 2017

Oil prices edged higher on Tuesday and trade higher on Wednesday morning after yesterday’s report that showed a drop in U.S. crude inventories and traders’ expectations that an OPEC-led production cut will be extended beyond March 2018. Oil prices are also affected by Canadian pipeline disruption which decreases the supply from Canada to the United States. WTI Crude oil is trading at $57.91, up 1.90%.

According to the American Petroleum Institute (API) – US crude stocks fell by 6.356 million barrels last week.

Analysts expected a 1.545 million barrels drop in crude stocks, while distillate stocks were down by 1.164 million barrels and gasoline inventories were expected to rise by 737,000 barrels.

The Energy Information Administration (EIA) is due to release its official data later on today.
