Nat Gas yesterday increased by 2.95% to settle at 191.8 due to the prediction for hotter-than-normal weather in mid-to-late June, a decline in U.S. daily output, higher exports to Mexico, and low wind energy requiring generators to use more gas to make electricity.

GECF firmly believes that natural gas, through its abundant, affordable, and clean hydrocarbons, plays a key role in energy conversion, while supporting progress in many sustainable development dimensions, including the protection of ecosystems, human health, and the economy. The Gas Exporting Countries (GECF), a government-coalition partnership of 19 of the world’s leading gas producers, represents…
