Anas Alhajji: U.S. seaborne crude imports fall to multi-decade lows

Anas Alhajji: U.S. seaborne crude imports fall to multi-decade lows
U.S. crude imports hit multi-decade lows

Anas Alhajji, managing partner, energy economist and market analyst at Energy Outlook Advisors LLC, examines factors behind the sharp decline in U.S. seaborne crude oil imports, now at multi-decade lows excluding the COVID period.

He also questions why U.S. crude oil production reached a record high in April despite earlier forecasts and explores implications for the future of shale production. Alhajji further considers whether the current oil market weakness is temporary or signals a more structural shift.

Alhajji has previously tracked trends in U.S. oil markets, noting a sharp U.S. crude inventory draw that lifted prices while surprise gasoline and distillate builds raised demand questions in recent coverage. He also highlighted rising Cushing crude inventories alongside persistently low WTI prices in another report. These observations have focused attention on shifting supply and storage patterns.
