According to the American Petroleum Institute (API), US gasoline consumption rose to 9.67MM b/d in July, 2.4% higher than July 2015 and the highest level for the month since 2007. "Gasoline deliveries, a measure of consumer demand, hit their highest level on record in July," said API Chief Economist Erica Bowman. "With this indication of increased demand, it's clear that consumers have continued to benefit from lower gasoline prices at the pump." The API also noted that US refineries produced a record of 10.2MM b/d in July, up 1.9% on the year, while distillate fuel production was down 2.5% at 4.96MM b/d.
