FX.co ★ U.S. Refinery Crude Runs Rebound Into Positive Territory Week‑on‑Week

U.S. refinery crude runs showed a notable week-over-week recovery, with the latest reading turning positive after a prior decline. According to data updated on 10 June 2026, refinery runs increased by 0.081 million barrels, compared with a decrease of 0.090 million barrels in the previous period.

The figures reflect a clear shift in momentum: the earlier data indicated a week-on-week pullback in refinery activity, while the current reading shows refineries modestly ramping up throughput. The comparison is based on changes in crude runs from one week to the next, with the latest “actual” figure measuring the move from the current week against the prior week, and the “previous” figure capturing the change from the prior week versus the one before it.

This return to growth in crude runs may signal improving refinery utilization after a lull, and will be closely monitored by market participants tracking U.S. fuel supply dynamics and short-term refinery demand for crude oil.
