IEA to speed up oil stocks release including over 20 million barrels of diesel

IEA members plan to accelerate about 100 million barrels of emergency stock releases, with more than 20 million barrels of diesel included, the agency said.

  • Spain will release 4.4 million barrels from strategic reserves in October, marking the country's second withdrawal following an initial 3.7 million-barrel delivery.
  • This October action fulfills part of Spain's March commitment to release oil products equivalent to up to 11.5 million barrels, addressing domestic diesel supply constraints.
  • The IEA began meeting Thursday to discuss accelerating roughly 100 million barrels still outstanding from March, including more than 20 million barrels of diesel as soon as possible.
  • President Donald Trump warned European Union countries to draw down emergency inventories or face a potential U.S. diesel export ban ahead of the November 3 midterm elections.
  • The United States is offering 17 million barrels from the SPR on Friday, though previous attempts to exchange government crude faced low market interest with companies taking only about 500,000 barrels.
