NGI’s managing editor of markets, Kevin Dobbs, interviews Pinebrook Energy Advisors’ Andy Huenefeld, managing partner. They delve into supplies in storage, production, weather-driven demand and export activity – with a special focus on prices in the Midwest and East. The latest U.S. Energy Information storage report showed overall inventories were 6% above the five-year average, but surpluses in the Midwest and East were notably leaner after June heat waves in those regions.
While the winter heating season is far off, natural gas storage is in a markedly different situation than last year. There are likely to be ample supplies stocked for next season, but with producers able to fast respond to cash market price signals and LNG feed gas demand bumping as export facilities ramp, Huenefeld details a dynamic season ahead.
