The EIA reported a 42 Mbbl withdrawal in U.S. propane/propylene inventories for the week ended November 14, a smaller draw than both industry expectations for a 688 Mbbl decline and the 644 Mbbl average pull for the week. Even so, total inventories stand at 105.4 MMbbl, which is 7.7 MMbbl (8%) above the same week in 2024 and 6.8 MMbbl (7%) above the 5-year maximum. Stocks also remain 14.8 MMbbl (16%) above the 5-year average, underscoring a still-comfortable supply cushion heading into the heating season.
