📰 News we're reading

• Oil climbs above $91 as Trump warns of new strikes against Iran (worldoil.com) — Cushing’s key oil hub is seeing stockpiles decline, even as they remain just above operational minimums, while national crude inventories also drop. Rising tensions and new U.S. strikes threatened against Iran have pushed oil prices back above $91 a barrel, underscoring how global conflict is tightening supplies that run through Cushing.
   

• Cushing Hub loses more oil inventory (okenergytoday.com) — Oil inventories at the Cushing storage hub in northern Oklahoma have dropped again, falling to about 21.6 million barrels and edging closer to operational limits. Federal data show a steady decline since the Iran conflict began, raising the risk of disruptions in blending and moving crude from Cushing to Gulf Coast refineries if levels fall too low.
   

• Canada Oil Outages and Bad Weather to Tighten Inventories at Key US Storage Hub (energynow.com) — Wet weather and an outage at a Canadian oil sands producer are tightening supplies that normally feed the Cushing storage hub, where inventories are already near operational lows. With U.S. crude stocks falling since the Iran war began, Cushing’s role as a key link to Midwest and Gulf Coast refineries makes these supply strains important for Oklahoma’s energy economy.
