Posted on May 12, 2011 by Vorys

The Energy Information Administration (EIA) has issued its Short-Term Energy Outlook for May.  Regarding natural gas, it summarizes:

Natural gas working inventories ended April 2011 at 1.8 trillion cubic feet (Tcf), about 11 percent, or 230 billion cubic feet (Bcf), below the 2010 end-of-April level. EIA expects that working gas inventories will build strongly during the summer and approach record-high levels in the second half of 2011. The projected Henry Hub natural gas spot price averages $4.24 per million British thermal units (MMBtu) in 2011, $0.15 per MMBtu lower than the 2010 average. EIA expects the natural gas market to begin tightening in 2012, with the Henry Hub spot price increasing to an average of $4.65 per MMBtu.
