What are the fields of EIA statistics?
EIA, as the official engine, China+NIN+Extension+DE+BO+Xuan+Industry+ZE+/Structure, counts the crude oil inventory level of Cushing, Oklahoma, USA, which is the main inland oil producing area in the United States, and determines the price of this North American "benchmark" crude oil-West Texas Light Crude Oil (WIT). Cushing's water storage reflects the transportation speed of American crude oil from China, China+NIN+Tuo+DE+BO+Xuan+Industry+Ze+/main inland producing areas to major refining areas along the Gulf Coast. The increase of Cushing crude oil inventory will put pressure on WTI price, and vice versa.
