The U.S. will release its first batch of 86 million barrels of strategic crude oil onto the market next week, using a “borrow-oil-to-repay-oil-at-a-premium” model.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has issued a solicitation for the drawdown of crude oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR). The first tranche—86 million barrels—is expected to enter the market by next weekend. According to the solicitation, participating companies must repay the borrowed crude oil to the DOE and deliver an additional quantity as a premium. The document states this approach serves both to replenish the U.S. SPR and to stabilize markets. The U.S. government also announced plans to restore approximately 200 million barrels to the SPR over the coming year to safeguard U.S. energy security. Data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) show that, as of June 6, the U.S. SPR stood at 415.4 million barrels. (CLS)
