SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — Crude-oil futures edged higher Monday after a U.S. government report showed an unexpected inventories increase, but a lower U.S. dollar provided some support for prices.

Crude for July delivery CLN11 +1.26% gained 18 cents, or 0.2%, to $99.74 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

Prices declined immediately after the Energy Information Administration report, but turned higher soon after. It traded as low as $98.20 in electronic trading earlier.

The EIA said oil inventories rose 600,000 barrels in the week ended May 20. Analysts polled by Platts expected crude supplies to decline 1.6 million barrels in the week.

The EIA also showed gasoline inventories up 3.8 million barrels, and distillate supplies gaining 2 million barrels.

Analysts surveyed by Platts had seen gasoline up 750,000 barrels, and distillates stocks up 500,000 barrels.

The lower dollar trumped the bearish inventories data, said Tariq Zahir, a managing member at Tyche Advisors in New York.

Oil’s strength is likely to be “short-lived” as it “looks to have come on the back of the US dollar pulling back slightly from its highs,” Zahir said.

One of the report’s surprises was the build for gasoline, “not only a large build but utilization increased dramatically,” he said.

June gasoline RBM11 +0.09% declined 1 cent to trade at $2.98 a gallon, recovering from steeper losses earlier.
