U.S. refinery crude runs edged higher in the latest reporting week, with volumes rising by 0.099 million barrels, according to Energy Information Administration (EIA) data updated on 15 July 2026. The week-over-week gain marks a modest rebound from the previous period, when runs had declined by 0.172 million barrels.
The data, which compare changes in refinery throughput from one week to the next, indicate that U.S. refiners have slightly increased processing activity after a pullback in the prior week. The “actual” figure reflects the change for the current week versus the previous one, while the “previous” reading captures the shift seen a week earlier compared with its preceding week.
