Henry Hub front month is trading just above the lowest since Jul 2020 seen earlier today as production remains strong, LNG export terminal supplies curtailed and with little sign of significant cold in the weather forecast.

    • US Natgas FEB 25 down -0.3% at 3.56$/mmbtu
  • Domestic natural gas demand is slightly higher up to 91.0bcf/d today but still below the seasonal normal of around 99bcf/d at this time of year.

  • Feedgas flows to US LNG export terminals are today at 14.1bcf/d according to Bloomberg with a recovery in Sabine Pass supply. Flows to Freeport LNG are still curtailed by about 0.6bcf/d due to a liquefaction train halt since about Jan 13 which was previously estimated to last one month.
