🛢️ The Energy Department on Saturday authorized up to 4 million barrels of crude from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve as an emergency loan to ExxonMobil and BP, citing weather-related supply disruptions in the Gulf. The companies must repay the oil with extra barrels in 2027.

The reserve is already badly depleted. It held about 283 million barrels as of October 5, under 40% of capacity and down 30% from a year ago, according to the Energy Information Administration. The US has drawn heavily on it since pledging 172 million barrels in March to offset oil lost to the war on Iran, and is now seeking bids to lend out another 40 million.
