Natural Gas Prices Rise Amid Tightening Inventories and Growing LNG Exports
Natural gas prices have rebounded after a sharp decline earlier this year, rising above USD 3 per MMBtu due to tightening inventories, increased power sector demand, and expanding US liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports. Lower-than-expected storage injections and reduced supply surpluses have eased market oversupply concerns. Seasonal factors like higher electricity use during warmer months and new LNG export facilities coming online are expected to support further price growth through 2026.
