The 12- and 24-month Natural Gas strip prices continue to drop. Yesterday's strips settled at $4.103/Dth (down 6.37%) and $4.137/Dth (down 4.63%) respectively.


The NYMEX gas futures January contract expired at $4.709, the lowest since March 2022. Falling gas prices have also pushed the Henry Hub cash market into the mid-$3s, fueled partly by warming US temperatures. Exceptionally mild US temperatures in the Northeast and the Midwest, are forecast to squelch the heating demand.
