Natural gas futures surge due to weather-driven demand and high LNG export flows

Investing.com — Natural gas futures are experiencing a rise, driven by the ongoing demand due to weather conditions across a large part of the U.S. and high flows of LNG feedgas to export facilities. Production has been somewhat restrained due to some freeze-offs.

The market’s response was subdued to the below-average storage withdrawal from last week, as larger inventory reductions are anticipated in the upcoming weeks.

According to a note from forecasting service NatGasWeather.com, chilly overnight conditions are expected to lead to larger than normal draws in the near future, reducing surpluses to approximately +50 Bcf, if not closer to zero.

The Nymex front month has seen an increase of 1.8%, standing at $3.717 per mmBtu. This rise in natural gas futures indicates a strong demand influenced by weather conditions and steady high flows of LNG feedgas to export facilities.
