Yesterday, the EIA reported at 81 Bcf injection for week ending Oct 8th. This report came in much lower than expectations. The route cause is likely seasonal nuke outages and low wind. As seen in the chart below, wind was well below the seasonal expected levels last week. The story flips for this week with wind coming in well above normal. The chart shows the daily Bcf/d change in gas burns due to wind’s performance as well.
