- Tuesday, October 16, 2012, 12:54 PM Natural gas prices between $4 and $5/MMBtu will trigger a return to large-scale drilling in U.S. dry gas sites, Platts writes, quoting execs at its Appalachian Gas Conference. The exception would be the Marcellus Shale region, where up to $3B of new pipelines could unlock the equivalent of 5% of daily U.S. natural gas supply in the last months of this year and in 2013. 11 Comments [Commodities, Energy]
- Tuesday, October 16, 2012, 10:36 AM Regulators and lawmakers have focused on investigating high-frequency trading in stocks, but natural gas traders tell WSJ they’re being pushed out by the emergence of HFT seeking profits from the gaps between prices offered to buy and sell gas futures contracts. One veteran trader says staying out of the market costs him broker fees and missed opportunities, but jumping into the fray is too risky. 1 Comment [Commodities]
- Friday, October 12, 2012, 2:29 PM The natural gas rig count declined again last week, falling by 15 to 422 vs. 936 a year ago. The number of working gas rigs is the lowest since June 1999, but this may not mean a supply crunch is coming as oil rig activity - which yields plenty of natural gas - remains strong. Still, it's hard not to notice the correlation between collapsing gas rig counts and natural gas prices up about 90% in 6 months. 7 Comments [Commodities, Energy]
- Thursday, October 11, 2012, 3:05 PM Natural gas pushes past $3.60, boosted by a smaller-than-expected rise in inventory even as stockpiles hit a record for this time of the year. Morgan Stanley thinks prices could touch $5 by Q1 2013: “Demand remains elevated, and supply should be slow to respond [due to] logistical challenges, more attractive oil economics, and higher breakeven costs outside the Marcellus.” 8 Comments [Commodities, Energy]
- Thursday, October 11, 2012, 11:34 AM Coal stocks are enjoying notable strength today, as natural gas hits multi-month highs, +4% to $3.61/btu. Dahlman Rose predicts demand may be on the rise from steel manufacturers in China; the boost in iron ore prices this week also is a bullish factor. ANR +12.1%, ACI +10.9%, JRCC +10.1%, ACI +7.7%, BTU +7.5%, CNX +6.3%, WLT +5.7%, CLD +5.5%. 4 Comments [Energy, On the Move]
- Thursday, September 27, 2012, 3:31 PM The cure for low prices is low prices. Left for dead a few months back, natural gas soars today to its highest price this year as the multi-year collapse in working rig counts looks to finally be taking effect. UNG +3%. The double-levered oil & gas ETF (DIG), +30.1% in Q3. 12 Comments [Energy, Commodities, On the Move]
- Wednesday, September 26, 2012, 5:54 PM Boone Pickens' enthusiasm notwithstanding, U.S. natural gas prices don't appear to be headed higher any time soon, as pipelines coming into service by year end are poised to extend the current supply glut. Deliveries from the Marcellus shale could grow by 30%, as ~1,000 area shale wells that now sit uncompleted because of a lack of pipeline infrastructure gradually come online. 17 Comments [Energy, Commodities]
- Monday, September 24, 2012, 2:37 PM Rig migration is dampening U.S. gas production, according to Goldman, which says moving a rig from the Haynesville shale gas formation to neighboring and liquids-rich Eagle Ford cuts the rig's gas output in half. The number of rigs drilling at Haynesville has plunged since early 2011 from more than 150 to fewer than 50 while Eagle Ford rigs have soared to nearly 250 from ~100.

- Friday, September 14, 2012, 3:46 PM As stocks and oil look to extend gains to cap a big week, natural gas (UNG -2.2%) tumbles 3.1% as MDA Earthsat says below-average temperatures likely will be “widespread” across the Midwest over the next 6-to-10 days and the East Coast will be chillier over the next 11-to-15 days. "Cooler temps are going to keep the pressure on the bulls," one analyst says. 6 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Thursday, September 6, 2012, 9:43 AM Some short-term price relief could be on the horizon for North American natural gas producers due to tightening inventories, rising demand from power generation, and less gas-directed drilling, Peters & Co. says in a new report. Injections into inventories are 36% below last year’s levels, summer power demand is up 20%, and the U.S. nat gas directed rig count is down 52%. 1 Comment [Commodities]
- Tuesday, September 4, 2012, 12:12 PM Natural gas (UNG +2.7%) prices may only have another month or so before more favorable demand dynamics begin to kick in, Morgan Stanley says. Coal-to-gas substitution this summer due to low gas prices helped keep prices down at a time when the gas glut was already pushing that way, but the firm says it’s getting closer to the time of year when those dynamics weaken. 1 Comment [Energy, On the Move]
- Monday, September 3, 2012, 2:34 AM Oil and gas producers in the Gulf of Mexico, as well as refineries on the mainland, are ramping up their operations after shutting down because of Hurricane Isaac. Almost 30% of oil production was back on line by the early hours of today, up from 6% on Saturday, and 44% of gas output, up from 35%. As of yesterday, only two refineries remained closed. 1 Comment [Energy]
- Wednesday, August 29, 2012, 8:39 AM Crude oil prices are down as Hurricane Isaac's wrath appears to leave Gulf Coast oil production facilities without significant damage. Even as a levee on the outskirts of New Orleans is breached, threatening major flooding, for the energy industry it's back to worrying about mundane matters like the global economy and Fed policy. WTI crude -0.6% to $95.73, Brent crude -0.2% to $112.35. 2 Comments [Energy, Commodities]
- Tuesday, August 28, 2012, 2:18 PM So is the Venezuelan oil fire out or not? Venezuela’s energy minister insists the inferno that has halted operations at its largest refinery is “totally extinguished," but a recent live broadcast by Venezuelan TV - which was swiftly cut off - showed flames and black smoke in at least one of the fuel storage tanks. Valero (VLO +1%) is the leading gainer among refiners; also XOM +0.3%, CVX +0.5%. 4 Comments [Energy, Global & FX]
- Tuesday, August 28, 2012, 8:49 AM As Isaac - nearly a hurricane, but still a tropical storm - advances toward the Gulf Coast, an estimated 78%, or 1.07M bbl/day of the Gulf's current daily oil production has been shut-in, and ~48%, or 2,166MMcf/day of the current daily natural gas production has been shut-in. 1 Comment [Energy]
- Monday, August 27, 2012, 12:39 PM Refiners post strong gains as Gulf Coast refineries shut down with Isaac's approach: Marathon (MPC +1.7%) and Phillips 66 (PSX +0.2%) shut two Louisiana refineries with a combined capacity of 711K bbl/day, while Valero (VLO +5.5%) shuts two with a combined 405K bbl/day capacity; Another factor pushing up prices is an explosion that shut operations at Venezuela's Amuay refinery. 5 Comments [Energy, On the Move]

Good day for nat. gas bulls. Following yesterday's favorable inventory data, GAZ and UNG add to gains. Test for GAZ rally comes at 8.40. - View all 0 replies

Favorable nat. gas inventory data leads to upside action in GAZ and UNG. Perhaps the bulls can keep them going for a while. - View all 0 replies

GAZ and UNG rally from day's low to finish in the black. Worth watching if a counter-trend rally can gather momentum here. - View all 0 replies

GAZ (and to lesser extent UNG) showing signs of sustaining uptrend. Rally can gain momentum if tomorrow's inventory data is not too shabby. - View all 0 replies
