About this series
Kerosene-type jet fuel, the aviation grade, held in tanks and terminals across PADD 4, the Rocky Mountain district. Reported weekly by the U.S. EIA as one of five regional cuts of the national jet fuel series. PADD 4 holds the thinnest jet cushion of the five districts, supplying Denver's hub and the mountain-state airports from very few local refineries. Small absolute swings translate into large percentage moves, so read the chart in barrels, not just percent.
Today's reading sits in the middle of the EIA record going back to 1990. This is where Rocky Mountain jet fuel stocks spend most of their time.
