US Natgas Prices Hover Near 6-Week High in Oil & Companies News 14/05/2026 US natural gas futures rose to around $2.87 per MMBtu, moving back near a six-week high, as declining production and improved demand expectations continued to support prices. Output has softened in recent weeks as some energy companies, such as EQT, curtailed output due to persistently low spot prices. Forecasts showed gas demand across the Lower 48 states, including exports, averaging around 98.9 bcfd this week and next, with the latest projections revised slightly higher from the previous outlook. Meanwhile, gas flows to major US export facilities declined from a monthly record due to seasonal maintenance work at several plants, including Freeport LNG in Texas and Cameron LNG in Louisiana. Investors now await the weekly storage report, which is expected to show that the surplus in inventories relative to the five-year average remained largely unchanged.
