EIA Statement on Premature Public Release of Weekly Petroleum Data 

The Energy Information Administration (EIA) is aware that petroleum data for the week ending July 27, scheduled for release at 10:30 AM  Eastern Time today, was available on the public EIA website before the scheduled release time. Initial indications suggest a malfunction in the system used by EIA to load the data while keeping it from public release prior to the scheduled release time. EIA is actively investigating this event and its possible causes. Once the problem is fully understood, EIA will make whatever changes in its systems or procedures that may be required to avoid a recurrence.
