Steady declines in crude supplies&nbsp;have pushed oil prices about $10 per barrel higher than last year, making it more expensive to produce gasoline.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Last week&#8217;s EIA report showed record-high gasoline demand. In addition, crude supplies declined for the fifth consecutive week. The five-week trend is giving greater confidence to investors. However, their excitement is tempered as total crude storage 70 million barrels above the 5-year average. This, combined with continuously high domestic crude oil output, it is still clear that the glut of crude will not disappear easily. Because of this, oil and gasoline prices are still forecast to retreat after the summer driving season draws to a close.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Crude oil prices surpassed $50.00 per barrel last week for the first time since May 24th. During that time, gas prices were at about the same level as they are now. Although pump prices could see additional upward movement in the coming weeks, any significant gains would not come without further growth in oil prices,&nbsp;a hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico or some sort of&nbsp;interruption in fuel supply.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Gas Price Tools for Reporters\/Consumers<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/AAACS.pr-optout.com\/Tracking.aspx?Data=HHL%3d%3e%2b41%3d%26JDG%3c%3d29%2f7%2f.LP%3f%40083%3a&amp;RE=MO&amp;RI=1480966&amp;Preview=False&amp;DistributionActionID=222901&amp;Action=Follow+Link\" >GasPrices.AAA.com<\/a>&nbsp;&#8211; Daily national, state, and metro gas price averages.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/AAACS.pr-optout.com\/Tracking.aspx?Data=HHL%3d%3e%2b41%3d%26JDG%3c%3d29%2f7%2f.LP%3f%40083%3a&amp;RE=MO&amp;RI=1480966&amp;Preview=False&amp;DistributionActionID=222900&amp;Action=Follow+Link\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color: #0066cc;\">AAA Mobile app<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;&#8211; Free app that shows&nbsp;current prices at a gas station near you.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<table cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"1\" border=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"2\"><u><strong>FUEL FUNDAMENTALS<\/strong><\/u><br \/>\n(Based on weekly data provided by&nbsp;the&nbsp;EIA)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>U.S. Crude Oil<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>U.S. Gasoline<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Oil prices held relatively steady&nbsp;<\/strong>last week, hovering between $49-$51 per barrel.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Supplies declined&nbsp;<\/strong>another week by 1.5 million barrels (-0.1%)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Production rose by 20 million barrels per day<\/strong>&nbsp;reaching 9.43 million bpd.
