EIA NG STORAGE REPORT
| August 10, 2017
August 10, 2017
The EIA reported a +28 bcf injection for the week ending August 3rd. The number was -8 below our estimate and -9 bcf below the Bloomberg median. This week the storage number surprised us in the South Central and Pacific regions. In the South Central our flow model predicted much weaker withdrawals than what actually materialized. If we use a regional supply/demand approach to infer the storage withdrawals we can see power demand was stronger than expected due to high ERCOT non-wind/non-nuc.....

EIA NG STORAGE REPORT
| August 03, 2017
August 3, 2017
The EIA reported a 20 bcf injection for the week ending July 27th. The number matched our estimate and was 1 bcf higher than the Bloomberg median. After our flow model’s large miss last week, specifically in the South Central, we spent time investigating power generation levels in the region. A large part of last week’s miss was the combination of the sustained heat and high non-nuclear, non-wind power generation in the ERCOT , leading to much stronger pulls than our flow model predicted. T.....
