Two trackers were checked and rejected as inputs: a Strait of Hormuz tracker page that has shown the United States SPR near 680 mb since May, and a reserve-runway table that still carries March figures and is internally inconsistent. Two others are read only as cross-checks: globaloilshock.com and straits.live.
