U.S. refinery crude runs showed a marginal week-over-week increase in the latest data, reversing the slight decline seen previously. According to figures updated on 12 August 2026, refinery runs rose by 0.026 million barrels, compared with a drop of 0.183 million barrels in the prior week.

The shift from negative to slightly positive territory suggests a modest stabilization in refinery activity on a weekly basis. While the magnitude of the change is small, the move higher contrasts with the earlier pullback, indicating that run rates have at least stopped contracting week-over-week for now. Investors and energy market participants will be watching upcoming releases to see whether this nascent uptick develops into a firmer trend in U.S. refining demand for crude.
