1Crude oil production on leases, and natural gas liquids (liquefied petroleum gases, pentanes plus, and
a small amount of finished petroleum products) production at natural gas processing plants.  Excludes what
was previously classified as "Field Production" of finished motor gasoline, motor gasoline blending
components, and other hydrocarbons and oxygenates; these are now included in "Adjustments."
9Net imports equal imports minus exports.
2Includes lease condensate. 10A negative value indicates a decrease in stocks and a positive value indicates an increase.  Includes
crude oil stocks in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, but excludes distillate fuel oil stocks in the Northeast
Heating Oil Reserve.  See Table 5.16.
3United States excluding Alaska and Hawaii. 11An adjustment for crude oil, finished motor gasoline, motor gasoline blending components, fuel
ethanol, and distillate fuel oil.  See EIA, Petroleum Supply Monthly (PSM), Appendix B.
4See Table 5.10. R=Revised.  P=Preliminary.  E=Estimate.  NA=Not available.  (s)=Less than 500 barrels per day and
greater than -500 barrels per day.
