Natural gas prices are lower this morning with both the Euro Ensemble and GFS Ensemble pointing to cooler temp in the overnight runs. The 00z run lost CDDs in both the 6-10 and 11-15 day range.
For this week’s storage report our estimates are pointing to a 39 Bcf injection. The tighter balances week-on-week was mainly a result of increased power burns and LNG deliveries bouncing slightly off the lows set the previous week. The current Bloomberg survey sits at 36 Bcf.
Data from the DTI, TCO (Columbia Gas) and SSE (Southern Star) showed injection levels similar to last week. These facilities are showing storage levels well past last year’s levels with DTI bring 73% full, TCO being 66% full, and SSE being 88% full.
