EIA, API weekly oil reports delayed by holiday weekend

The US Energy Information Administration's Weekly Petroleum Status Report will be released at 11 a.m. EDT (1500 GMT) Thursday, June 2, rather than the usual Wednesday release, due to the closure of the federal government on Monday, May 30, for the Memorial Day holiday weekend.

The American Petroleum Institute's weekly report, usually issued on Tuesdays at 4:30 p.m. EDT (2030 GMT), will be released on Wednesday, June 1, at that time.
