Natural gas prices rose by 4.5% to ₹299.6 due to a larger-than-expected storage draw, with the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) reporting a withdrawal of 190 billion cubic feet from storage for the week ending December 6. Despite the decline, storage levels remain 1.8% higher year-over-year and 4.6% above the five-year average. Gas flows to…
Natural gas prices are expected to rise on the back of warmer weather. Natural gas prices rose 3.63% to ₹271.5. Demand increased on higher feedgas volumes from LNG export facilities, averaging 14.2 billion cubic feet (bcfd) in early December, up from 13.6 bcfd in November. Production in the 48 states increased from 101.5 bcfd in…
Natural gas prices rose by 0.65% to ₹262, driven by forecasts for cooler weather and increased heating demand. Rising gas flows to U.S. LNG export plants also supported the market. However, gains were limited as utilities reported smaller-than-expected storage withdrawals. The U.S. Energy Information Administration reported a 30 billion cubic feet withdrawal for the week…
Natural gas prices fell by 3.39% to settle at ₹273.6, driven by easing heating demand despite colder-than-normal weather. Weather forecasts suggest a shift from colder-than-normal to near-normal levels from December 4-12, reducing the pressure on utilities to draw heavily from storage. Production levels in the U.S. remain robust, with an average of 101.4 billion cubic…
Natural gas prices rose by 2.32% to ₹278.3, driven by a smaller-than-expected inventory withdrawal and forecasts of increased demand. The U.S. Energy Information Administration reported a 2 billion cubic feet withdrawal from storage for the week ending November 22, 2024, reducing U.S. gas inventories to 3,967 bcf, 3.5% higher than last year and 7.2% above…
Natural gas prices rose 3.81% to ₹278.2 in November, while US gas production averaged 100.7 billion cubic feet per day (bcfd), down from 101.3 bcfd in October and well below the record of 105.3 bcfd set in December 2023. In 2024, for the first time since 2020, demand is expected to reach a record high…
Natural gas prices fell by -0.75% to ₹237.5 due to increased daily production and higher-than-expected storage builds. The latest federal report showed utilities added 42 billion cubic feet of gas to storage for November 8, 2024, marking the fourth consecutive week of larger-than-usual injections. However, losses were limited by forecasts of colder weather, which is…
Natural gas prices fell 1.4% yesterday to settle at 197.6, as forecasts of milder weather over the next two weeks indicated less than normal heating demand. Meteorologists predict warmer-than-normal temperatures in the Lower 48 U.S. states through Nov. 1, which will reduce natural gas consumption. As a result, LSEG forecasts that average gas demand, including…
Natural gas prices dropped by 3.57% to ₹240.3, despite a smaller-than-expected storage injection by US utilities. Concerns over potential disruptions in US natural gas production eased as tropical storms moved away from the Gulf of Mexico. Baker Hughes reported a 3 to 102 increase in rig drilling activity. Storage injections have been at record lows,…
Natural gas prices dropped by 2.27% to ₹180.6 due to milder weather forecasts, reducing demand for gas by power generators. Despite this, output decreased, and flows to LNG export terminals increased. Gas inventories remained 12% above normal levels, as producers injected smaller amounts into storage for 15 out of 16 weeks. Gas output in the…
