Oil futures rallied nearly 4% in a volatile session Tuesday to approach $50 a barrel, after a report showing a surge in U.S. housing starts offset expectations that U.S. crude inventories rose last week.

But on the supply side, analysts surveyed by Platts expect
- data will show a 2-million-barrel increase in U.S. commercial crude stockpiles
- decline of 2.1 million barrels in gasoline stocks
- 400,000-barrel increase in distillate inventories


when the Energy Information Administration (EIA) releases its closely watched weekly petroleum data at 10:30 a.m. Eastern on Wednesday.

the Platts survey showed.

Refinery utilization is expected to remain unchanged at 82.7% of capacity.

"The fundamental picture for oil is looking a little better, largely due to OPEC's efforts, but more still needs to be done to counter the weakening demand and to reduce the glut of crude in storage," said Nimit Khamar, analyst at Sucden Financial Research.

"The economic data and inventories expectations" were moving crude prices, said Phil Flynn, vice president at Alaron Trading. "People also expect OPEC will show better compliance."

The expiration of options on the front-month April futures contract added extra volatility to Tuesday's trading, Flynn added, as traders scrambled to cover their option positions before they expire.

"It's also option expiration madness," he said. "Today is really about finding out what put or call players do to cover and protect their positions."

Quote from InvestVision:

- Expect the unexpected as this options expiration for oil could cause a big pop and a late day drop!

We may see part of that trend develop in tonight’s API report and tomorrows EIA energy supply report.

Mark Shenk of Bloomberg News says that U.S. oil supplies probably climbed last week because of weak demand at refineries that have yet to finish seasonal maintenance.

The Bloomberg survey shows
- that US crude oil stockpiles probably rose 1.0 million barrels in the week ended March 13 from 351.3 million the week before, according to the median of 11 estimates by analysts before an Energy Department report this week.

- Eight of those surveyed said supplies increased and three forecast a decline.

Refineries probably operated at 82.7 percent of capacity, unchanged from the week before, according to the median of responses in the survey. U.S. companies often shut units for maintenance in January and February as attention shifts away from heating oil and before gasoline use rises in the summer.

- Gasoline stockpiles probably dropped 1.5 million barrels from 212.5 million the prior week, according to the survey.
- Eight analysts forecast a decline and three said there was an increase.

Supplies of distillate fuel, a category that includes heating oil and diesel, probably rose 1 million barrels from 145.4 million.
- Six of the respondents forecast an increase, four said there was a decline and one forecast no change.
 
Market big players pulled oil to 49.80 set the perfect stage for touching tomorrow 47.0 ( if not lower) when EIA numbers are released .

EIA Mcgraw hill report show 2 million increase , where as Bloomberg shows 1 million.

so it is certain it shows at least 600,000 crude oil stock piles increase .
