3月2日，纽约商业期货交易所（NYMEX）的原油期货收购价超过了53美元/桶，接近四个月以来的新高记录。美国能源部公布上周原油和汽油库存增加，但取暖用燃油和柴油減少；国际能源机构预测今年全球能源需求将上升。外电报道如下：Crude oil prices ended above 53 dollars a barrel Wednesday after a US government report showed a drop in heating fuel stockpiles.
On the New York Mercantile Exchange, oil futures for April delivery rose 1.37 dollars to end at 53.05 dollars per barrel. On London's International Petroleum Exchange, the April Brent crude-oil futures contract climbed 1.11 dollars to settle at 51.22 dollars a barrel.
On Wednesday, a US government report showed that inventories of distillate fuel, a category that include heating oil and diesel, fell 1.7 million barrels to 110 million. Analysts had expected a 1.2-million-barrel decline.
Distillate fuel表示“馏出燃料”，如民用燃料油和柴油。Distillate有“蒸馏液；馏出物；浓缩物；精华”等含义，例如：the distillate of wisdom（智慧的结晶）；fuel oil distillate（燃料油馏出物）light oil distillate（轻油馏分）。
