European gas markets steady after a pull back from a high of €39.5/MWh yesterday as markets assess the impact of Middle East escalations and warming weather in NW Europe next week. European supply remains stable with a dip in LNG sendout as pipeline supply from Norway and Algeria slowly recovers from maintenance.

  • TTF Q1 25 down 2.1% at 38.81€/MWh

  • Global LNG demand rose 27% in the week to Sept. 29 to 8.24m metric tons driven by an increase to Asia, according to BNEF. Global LNG supply fell by 1% from the previous week to 7.85m tons with a 0.25m tons increase from Qatar offsetting a 0.25m tons decline from the U.S.
