US SPR Crude Oil Stocks Plummet to 40-Year Low
Crude oil stocks in the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) have hit their lowest level since 1982, falling by approximately 1.2 million barrels to 285.4 million barrels last week.
This marks a significant drop for the reserve, which plays a crucial role in maintaining global energy stability.
The decline comes as the US struggles to balance its oil production and consumption needs amidst rising global demand.
