Natural gas prices rose by 3.62% to $266 due to declining daily output, increasing LNG export flows, and forecasts for hotter-than-normal weather in the U.S. through late August. This heatwave is expected to increase air conditioning demand and gas consumption for power generation. Gas-fired power plants generate over 40% of the U.S.’ electricity, making the…
Natural gas prices rose by 2.05% to 347.8, despite a decline in daily output and higher-than-expected demand forecasts for the next two weeks. Gas stockpiles remain 5% below normal levels due to extreme cold in January and February. Average gas production in the Lower 48 states fell to 104.4 billion cubic feet per day in…
Natural gas prices rose by 0.85% to ₹284.3 due to higher global LNG demand and colder weather in the U.S. by mid-January. Industry estimates increased demand forecasts by 18 billion cubic feet, signaling the onset of the withdrawal season. Concerns over Russian gas reaching Europe via Ukraine have driven demand for U.S. LNG exports. U.S….
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 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 saw a 5.11% increase and ended up at 168.7 due to several variables that affected market dynamics. A decrease in output combined with more feed gas supplied to the Freeport LNG export facility raised market activity. Natural gas flow to U.S. LNG export facilities increased significantly, hitting a three-week high. Freeport LNG in…
The price of natural gas dropped sharply by -4.09% to 143.1, mostly due to record supply, a surplus of fuel in storage, and a decrease in heating demand. During the week ending February 16, 60 billion cubic feet of natural gas were drawn from storage; this amount was less than the 64 billion cubic feet…
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…
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…
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…
