Stocks fell 734,000 bbl, "Lel Bruce Peto" informs, a year ago during this 
period. Distillate inventories are at the low end of the normal 5-year 
average range, and could have fallen by 1-2-million bbl last week. Colder 
than normal weather in the Northeast coupled with reduced refinery output 
due to maintenance programs should send stocks lower, the experts say.
A slight increase in nationwide crude oil inventories of 1-2-million bbl 
from API is the consensus among analysts this week..as of 11-05-02...
