How to read this report
This is natural gas held in U.S. underground storage. An injection means storage rose; a withdrawal means it fell. Compare the weekly change and the five-year average for context. An injection often weighs on prices and a withdrawal can support them, but expectations and other factors matter. The U.S. Energy Information Administration normally publishes this report on Thursday at 10:30 AM Eastern.
Why are natural gas prices up?
- The global NYMEX Natural Gas price is up today by 1.32% to $3.06, which directly impacts the Indian price.
- Increased volumes of LNG exports are a fundamental factor contributing to rising natural gas prices in 2026, alongside record domestic demand.
- Growing demand from data centers and industrial electricity use is adding a structural, less seasonal source of demand growth for natural gas.
- The conflict in West Asia has escalated, with Houthi rebels in Yemen extending the war zone to the Red Sea area, posing a risk to shipping and disrupting import consignments from the Gulf region. This has forced oil marketing companies to import more LNG from the US, incurring higher shipping costs.
- The USD/INR exchange rate is 95.17, unchanged since the previous close.
- Risk: a shift in weather forecasts or a surprise in the weekly EIA storage report.
- Next scheduled data point: EIA’s weekly storage report, Thu 29 Oct, 8:00 PM IST.
