WASHINGTON, May 4 (KUNA) -- US oil output recorded its lowest level since September 2014, sinking by more than 100,000 barrels per day from 8.938 million bpd to 8.825 million bpd in the week up to April 29.
However, imported crude helped drive up commercial stockpiles, recording a 110,000 barrels per day rise which lowered crude prices, US Energy Department figures showed.
Imports over April averaged 8.4 percent more than 2015. (end)
