Chesapeake Energy announced a cut in its 2024 gas production estimates in response to the recent drop in gas prices to a 3.5-year low, which caused natural gas to see a significant jump, finishing up 11.84% at 147.4. This action by Chesapeake is part of a larger trend, as other gas producers like Antero Resources,…
Natural gas saw pressure from below, ultimately settling at 133.6, down -1.11% from the previous week’s close amid record output and a lower-than-anticipated storage depletion. Warmer-than-normal weather that reduced demand for heating caused U.S. utilities to withdraw 49 billion cubic feet of natural gas from storage during the week ending February 9, 2024, falling short…
U.S. inflation statistics that sparked worries about possible delays in high-interest rate cuts caused copper to close down by -0.25% at 705.9. Interest rate reduction forecasts were recalculated by traders in response to the surprisingly high U.S. consumer price index in January. Based on the present pricing of Federal funds futures, LSEG’s rate likelihood tool…
A lower expectation for heating demand, near-record output, enough fuel in storage, and falling worldwide petrol prices were some of the factors that contributed to natural gas’s notable reduction of -7.48%, which eventually settled at 139.7. Low gas flows to U.S. LNG export facilities, mostly as a result of the liquefaction unit closure at Freeport…
The mild winter weather, recent disruptions at LNG export plants, and a surge in production all contributed to the decline in natural gas prices, which closed at 151, down -1.82%. Analysts predict that due to the difficult market conditions, some producers may reduce their gas drilling operations. According to Baker Hughes, the number of gas…
Natural gas saw a notable 1.9% increase, closing at 177.2, as predictions indicated that February would be milder than expected before cooling off later in the month. According to NatGas Weather, both American and European weather models showed a milder forecast for the period of February 10–14, which would cause temperatures to drop later over…
The natural gas market saw a little increase of 0.15%, ending at 196.6, due to higher demand estimates and more gas flowing to LNG export plants. This spike happened in spite of record output levels, expectations of warm weather, and the expectation that next week’s heating demand will fall. The anticipated withdrawal of 55 billion…
A surprise storage withdrawal, approaching colder weather, and increased demand for heating over the next two weeks were among the unanticipated variables that drove up natural gas prices, which closed at 242 with a 0.67% gain. In sharp contrast to the 60 bcf withdrawal during the same week last year and a five-year average decline…
The price of natural gas fell sharply by -3.25% to settle at 291.4, mostly due to record output levels and predictions of milder weather. Prices were further pressured by lower predictions for heating demand over the next two weeks. According to the EIA, US utilities increased the amount of gas they stored by 74 billion…
Anticipated colder weather and higher heating demand in the upcoming week caused the natural gas market to see a 1.86% price hike, ultimately settling at 279.9. Record-high output levels and a generally benign weather forecast through early November did not prevent this growth. Notably, gas output in the Lower 48 U.S. states surpassed prior records…
