US natural gas futures ended lower as domestic gas flows to liquefied natural gas export terminals along the US Gulf Coast dropped for a third consecutive day. The reduction is concentrated at Sabine Pass LNG in Louisiana and Corpus Christi LNG in Texas.
Lower gas flows to terminals leaves more supplies in the US ahead of an expected uptick in gas-fired power demand as consumers ramp up air-conditioners in the summer. Domestic stockpiles are already more than 6% above the five-year average.
At the same time, LNG-related losses could be constrained as “pipeline maintenance limited to the short term may allow intake to rebound,” said Eli Rubin, senior energy analyst at EBW Analytics Group.
