Natural Gas Futures Market News and Commentary

Nat-Gas Prices Rally on Cold Weather

March Nymex natural gas (NGH25) on Friday closed up +0.097 (+2.67%).

Mar nat-gas prices Friday extended this week's rally as a Polar Vortex moved towards the central United States.  The Commodity Weather Group said that forecasts shifted colder for the Midwest and southern US for Feb 19-23.

Nat-gas prices had carry-over support from Thursday's news that EIA nat-gas inventories fell -100 bcf in the week ended February 7, a larger draw than expectations of -91 bcf.

In a bullish longer-term factor for nat-gas prices, President Trump in January lifted the Biden administration's pause on approving gas export projects, thus moving into active consideration a backlog of about a dozen LNG export projects.  Bloomberg reported that the Trump administration is close to approving its first LNG export project, a Commonwealth LNG export facility in Louisiana.  Increased US capacity for exporting LNG would boost demand for US nat-gas and would be supportive of nat-gas prices.
