Gas Prices Continue Moving Lower On Strong Supply & High Storage

LNG

European LNG prices fell further at the start of the week due to temperatures forecast to return to seasonal averages from mid-December after a cold snap, while storage remains almost full at 97.7% (latest data from Gas Infrastructure Europe). They fell 5.2% to EUR 44.25 to be down 7.8% this month and close to the November 22 lows.

  • US natural gas was down another 2.3% to be 22% lower in November due to forecasts of warmer weather for much of the US and continued strong output. Financial firm LSEG said that output in the Lower 48 states has risen 3.1% this month while they expect demand to fall next week, according to Reuters.
  • After rising on Friday, north Asian LNG fell 3.5% on Monday to be down almost 7% this month.
