EIA NG STORAGE REPORT
| January 12, 2017
January 12, 2017
The EIA reported a -151 bcf withdrawal for the week ending January 5, a larger draw than our estimate of -140 bcf and the Bloomberg median at -143 bcf. Another holiday week, another surprise. Our models missed both holiday week numbers by 10 bcf, albeit in opposing directions. At a regional level, our biggest miss today was in South Central. While the EIA -reported total draw from storage over the past two weeks matches our combined output over the same period, we’re puzzled by the swing. Tha.....

EIA NG STORAGE REPORT
| January 05, 2017
January 5, 2017
The EIA reported a -49 bcf withdrawal for the week ending December 29, a much smaller draw than our estimate of -61 bcf and the Bloomberg median at -72 bcf. Barring a reporting error, we should look for an explanation in production and power burns. A supply boost would be expected at an average HH cash price of $3.61/mmbtu. Any incremental gas that was brought online during that period likely remained outside the reach of our scrape models, mostly in South Central. Indeed, salts injected +19 b.....
