Steps

  1. Obtain an EIA API key (eia.gov/opendata) if you don't already have one from the propane-stocks route.
  2. Call https://api.eia.gov/v2/seriesid/PET.WDISTUS1.W?api_key=YOUR_KEY for the 'Weekly U.S. Ending Stocks of Distillate Fuel Oil' national series (Thousand Barrels).
  3. For finer granularity (e.g., by PADD region), query the petroleum/stoc/wstk route directly with facets[product][] and facets[duoarea][] parameters instead of the seriesid shortcut.
  4. Read period/value pairs from the response; distillate stocks are released alongside propane stocks in the same Wednesday Weekly Petroleum Status Report cycle.
  5. Combine with the propane stocks series (WPRSTUS1) to build a joint heating-fuels inventory view for dual-fuel service territories.
