NEW PEAK IS SET
Institute Reports All-Time
Record of 3,551,950
Barrels Daily.
By the Auocuted Preu.
NEW YORK, May 19.—Crude oil
production continued its record
breaking way during the week ended
May 15, setting a new historic peak
of 3,551,950 barrels daily, the Ameri
can Petroleum Institute reported. This
was a gain of 63,750 barrels dally over
the previous period.
The bulk of the Increase was again
east of California. The advance in
this area was 52,150 barrels daily to
2,897,550.
Refinery operations were stepped up
to 80 per cent of potential by com
panies owning 89 per cent of the in
dustry’s capacity. TTiis would indicate
3,135,000 barrels were run to stills
daily, against 3,065,000 barrels the
week before.
Consumption, however, was suffi
ciently heavy to cause withdrawals
from stocks of finished and unfinished
gasoline at terminals, refineries and
in transit of 1,091,000 barrels. This
cut the total to 80,378,000 barrels.
Cracked gasoline production was
pushed up from 675,000 barrels daily
to 705,000 barrels, reports from 95
per cent of the industry indicated.
Imports of crude and refined oils
totaled 1,365,000 barrels, compared
with 954,000 barrels in the preceding
week.
