U.S. crude inventories have shed some 79 million barrels since the start of 2021 and about 22 million barrels since the start of 2020.

In the week prior, the API reported a draw in crude oil inventories of 3.0 million barrels after analysts had predicted a draw of 1.558 million barrels.

Oil prices were trading down on Tuesday, largely in response to the White House's plan to release 180 million barrels of crude oil from the SPR, and other nations' plans that could release crude in a coordinated measure against high oil prices.
