U.S. fuel demand rose in February as economic growth bolstered gasoline and diesel use, according to the American Petroleum Institute.

Total deliveries of petroleum products, a measure of demand, climbed 4.4 percent to 19.7 million barrels a day last month from a year earlier, the highest February total in three years, the industry-funded group said today in a report.
