Natural Gas Rises on Warming Forecasts While Inventories Rose Last Week

Natural gas prices rose early Friday on warming long-term forecasts while a day-prior storage report met expectations. Gas for June delivery was last seen up US$0.06 to US$2.95 per million British thermal units.The rise comes as long-term forecasts from the National Weather Service see all states with seasonal or warmer temperatures over its eight to 14 day forecast offering high cooling demand.In its weekly report issued Thursday, the Energy Information Administration said U.S. inventories of the fuel rose by 85-billion cubic feet last week, near expectations and leaving stocks at 2.29-trillion cubic feet, 6.5% above the five-year average."After the storage report printed in line with expectations a slight adjustment to weather outlooks proved just enough for the market to firm and test the resistance just under $2.90," Gary Cunningham, Director of Market Research at Tradition Energy, wrote.

U.S. Natural Gas Prices Rise in Week Ended May 13 Amid Near-Normal Temperatures, EIA Reports

The U.S. benchmark Henry Hub natural gas spot price rose US$0.13 per million British thermal units to $2.88/MMBtu in the week ended May 13, the U.S. Energy Information Administration said in its Weekly Natural Gas Storage Report Supplement released Thursday.Temperatures across the country remained near normal overall, limiting heating and cooling needs, the EIA noted.U.S. natural gas demand edged lower by 0.5 billion cubic feet per day week over week, led by a decline in residential and commercial consumption and slightly offset by a rise in electric power sector demand, the EIA said.U.S. natural gas supply increased 1.0 Bcf/d, led by higher dry natural gas production, the EIA reported, citing LSEG Data.Net injections into storage amounted to 85 Bcf for the week ended May 8, resulting in total working gas stocks of 2,290 Bcf. This was 140 Bcf more than the five-year average and 51 Bcf more than the year-ago period.The LNG-carrying capacity of vessels departing U.S. ports was 141 Bcf, up 26 Bcf from the previous week. Thirty-seven LNG vessels left the country, an increase of seven vessels week over week, the EIA reported.

Natural Gas Moves Lower Ahead of Storage Data on Cooling Long-Term Forecasts

Natural gas prices eased Thursday ahead of fresh storage data on cooler long-term forecasts.Gas for June delivery was last seen down $0.03 to US$2.83 per million British thermal units.The drop comes as long-term forecasts from the National Weather Service expect most states between the Rocky Mountains and Mississippi River to see seasonal or cooler temperatures over the its six to 10-day outlook, cutting into cooling demand.The Energy Information Administration will release its weekly survey of inventories of the fuel, with another large injection into storage expected."We are projecting a +86 (billion cubic foot rise) but should we see a number over 90 Bcf then the support level should fail and we could drop back to near $2.75. A storage number in the low 80's could give the bulls a reason to push back towards $3 but without some help from the weather maps," Gary Cunningham, Director of Market Research at Tradition Energy, noted.

U.S. Energy Production Sets New Record in 2025 for 4th Consecutive Year, EIA Reports

U.S. energy production hit a new record high of 107 quadrillion British thermal units in 2025, up 3.4% from the previous record set in 2024, the U.S. Energy Information Administration said in a Monday note, citing its most recent Monthly Energy Review.Production was driven by record-high production in natural gas, crude oil, natural gas plant liquids and renewables, the EIA noted. This was the fourth consecutive year of record energy production for the U.S.Dry natural gas output rose more than 4% year over year to 39 trillion cubic feet in 2025, with most of the growth occurring in the Appalachia, Permian and Haynesville regions, the EIA said.Crude oil production grew 3% to 13.6 million barrels per day from 2024. Most of the growth comes from the Permian region of western Texas and southeastern New Mexico.Production of NGPLs, or hydrocarbons separated as liquids during natural gas processing, climbed 7% to 4 trillion cubic feet year over year. Like oil and natural gas output, NGPLs production also hit a new record in 2025, according to the agency.
