TTF Recoups Some Losses on US LNG Project Delays

NATURAL GAS

TTF has recouped some earlier losses after US President Joe Biden announced paused pending approvals of new LNG export projects in the US. Front month TTF continues to trade lower on the day weighed on by muted demand expectations, healthy storage levels and sufficient supplies.

  • TTF FEB 24 down -0.9% at 27.53€/MWh
  • TTF SUM 24 down -0.7% at 28.6€/MWh
  • TTF WIN 24 down -0.6% at 33.7€/MWh
  • TTF SUM 25 down -0.4% at 30.93€/MWh
  • As markets expected, US President Joe Biden paused pending approvals of new LNG exports projects on Friday until the DOE has reviewed the economic and environmental impacts of new projects seeking approval.
  • The Henry Hub and TTF curves show a narrowing long-term spread as US domestic supply tightens with new LNG driving stronger US export demand but the increased global supply helps to ease the supply concerns in Europe (see chart).
