U.S natgas prices have gained further on Tuesday, hovering near a 23-month high in the previous session on strong flows to LNG terminals, cold weather forecasts and the resulting increased heating demand.

  • US Natgas JAN 25 up 3.3% at 3.78$/mmbtu
  • LSEG estimates 376 heating degree days over the next two weeks, compared with 370 estimated on Monday.
  • The amount of gas flowing to the eight big U.S. LNG export plants rose to an average of 14.6 bcfd so far in December from 13.6 bcfd in November.
  • LSEG said average gas output in the Lower 48 U.S. states rose to 103 bcfd so far in December from 101.5 bcfd in November.
  • The forecast for average gas demand in the Lower 48, including exports, rose to 132.6 bcfd this week from 124.7 bcfd in the prior week.
  • "The overnight weather data maintains a frosty weather system sweeping across the U.S. Jan 2-6, initially over the Midwest, then gaining territory to cover nearly all the U.S. besides portions of the West," NatGasWeather.com says in a note.
