National inventories stand at the lowest in 17 years as the US has become the world\u2019s diesel supplier of choice. Fuel markets have been in disarray since growing bans against Russian products restricted one of Europe\u2019s main suppliers of energy. With exports draining US tanks, the East Coast is feeling the pinch most acutely due to a lack of sufficient fuelmaking capacity there.
