EIA's Petroleum Supply Reporting System collects information needed for determining the supply and disposition of crude oil, petroleum products, and natural gas liquids. The data are published by EIA and are used by public and private analysts. Respondents are operators of petroleum refineries, blending plant, bulk terminals, crude oil and product pipelines, natural gas plant facilities, tankers, barges, oxygenated producers and oil importers.

EIA is proposing to collect working and shell storage capacity for crude oil and petroleum products semi-annually in March and September on existing PSRS monthly survey forms. Inventories are an important source of supply in meeting regional and local demand. Industry treats inventories strategically as an economic means of helping to meet their market requirements and opportunities. Furthermore, as regulatory requirements change, there is a need to monitor whether or not capacity to store both crude oil and products is being either temporarily or permanently idled. Data regarding capacity to hold inventories is therefore of great interest.Storage capacity reported on EIA surveys will include aboveground and underground storage for only those facilities and tanks for which inventory levels are currently reported on the surveys. Therefore, bonded storage capacity and storage capacity in secondary and tertiary sectors will be excluded. The change only applies to forms EIA-810, EIA-812, EIA-813, EIA-815, and EIA-819.
