TankWatch Cushing
Cushing, Oklahoma, is the key hub for NYMEX Crude Oil futures. Known as The Pipeline Crossroads of the World, it has a 90-million-barrel storage capacity and transports over 6.5 million barrels daily. This infrastructure supports WTI’s status as a global benchmark, crucial as US oil production continues to rise.
TankWatch by Energy Aspects leads the market by delivering the most frequent per-tank, per-operator Cushing oil inventory data, providing first-to-market insights into daily changes in WTI stocks. Our continuous monitoring of the Cushing, Oklahoma oil storage site allows for detailed measurements and highly accurate insights into potential supply and demand shifts.
Data on tank inventories at the individual operator level serves as a valuable indicator of the crude oil composition at Cushing. By acting as a proxy for the types of crudes available, these inventories provide insight into which crudes are readily accessible for DSW blending (physical WTI NYMEX). This information is crucial for forming views on the future liquidity of physical deliverables against WTI NYMEX
Oil traders and analysts leverage this valuable intelligence from the Cushing storage hub to make more informed and agile WTI trading decisions.
