Oil crisis deepens as U.S. output falls and gas supplies tighten
The article details a sharp drop in U.S. crude oil production from December through February, with 8.29 million to 8.46 million barrels daily and a 22.8 million barrel shortfall. Refineries run at 85 percent capacity as gasoline yield per barrel declines from 50.6 percent to about 46 percent amid a shift from Iranian light crude to Arabian heavy. Weather and logistics further constrain supply, while industry figures acknowledge the dip and timing.
