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 ended the week at 133.3, a minor decrease of -0.22%, as the market was influenced by near-record output and a smaller-than-expected storage removal the previous week. Because warmer-than-normal weather suppressed heating demand, U.S. utilities removed 49 billion cubic feet of natural gas from storage, falling short of market estimates of a 67 bcf…
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…
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…
Forecasts predicting a loss in demand and an increase in supply due to the expectation of warmer-than-normal weather in late January caused natural gas to dip significantly, falling by -4.47% to settle at 243.7. Although the extreme cold weather drove spot power and petrol prices to multi-year highs, the futures market was impacted by expectations…
While record output and mild weather have affected storage demand, natural gas prices increased by 0.24% to close at 207.5. Expectations of colder weather in January and higher demand for heating contributed to the price reduction. The surplus was mostly due to record gas flows to U.S. LNG export facilities. High output and abundant storage…
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…
With record production, abundant storage, and less demand, natural gas had a significant 5.25% decrease, ending at 223.9. Contrary to the predicted withdrawal, the U.S. gas storage system saw an unexpected 10 Bcf addition. This surprised the market, especially considering the large departure from last year’s numbers. The negative outlook was reinforced by weather predictions…
