US Natgas Prices Rise after EIA Data in General Energy News 13/02/2026 US natural gas futures rose to around $3.23 per MMBtu driven by strong LNG export demand and continued heavy storage withdrawals. Energy firms withdrew 249 billion cubic feet of gas from storage in the week to February 6, following a record 360 bcf draw the previous week, as prolonged Arctic cold boosted heating demand. Although the latest withdrawal was slightly below forecasts, it was far larger than the 111 bcf draw a year earlier and well above the five year average of 146 bcf. LNG demand remained robust, with flows to the eight major US export plants averaging 18.5 bcfd so far in February, close to record levels. Domestic output also edged higher to 107.6 bcfd, up from 106.3 bcfd in January. However, weather forecasts point to mostly warmer than normal conditions through late February, which could ease demand and limit further price gains.
