EIA is considering enhancements to the way we disseminate data in the Weekly Petroleum Status Report (WPSR) by streamlining formats and introducing new offerings.

We are considering changing how data is published, not what data EIA collects, our collection methods, or the statistical methodologies used to produce the WPSR. The published data, underlying methodologies, and all existing data elements will remain the same.

We are currently testing new, consolidated HTML, CSV, and JSON formats. A test site with sample files (CSV and JSON) for the period ending May 15, 2026, are available, and user testing sessions are planned and highly encouraged.

These streamlining efforts together with earlier infrastructure and workflow enhancements implemented over the past several months, will strengthen the resiliency of our WPSR publication, allowing our team to focus on the data and statistics at our core.
