Gasoline inventories increased 3 percent to 225 million barrels from 219 million barrels, leaving stocks 5 percent below normal.Demand for gasoline during the four-week reporting period fell 8 percent to 8.7 million barrels per day from 9.

Refining capacity, however, got tighter last week as refineries operated at 95 percent of their collective capacity. Even as inventories of distillate fuels including diesel increased 2 percent to 114 million barrels last week, stocks remain 18 percent below normal for this time of year.
