1 Week Summary: The EIA reported a storage injection of 112 Bcf for the week ending May 22nd. The much larger-than-expected build in inventories sent NYMEX July gas futures 14.1 cents lower on the day to $2.706/MMBtu, and then continued with another 6 cent drop Friday. Storage is now only 18 Bcf below the 5 Year Average, and next week's injection is expected to finally surpass it. This downturn in prices proves what most experts have been saying for the past few weeks, which is that the current market cannot consitently support gas prices in the $3/MMBtu range. With many more 100+ Bcf injections expected in the coming weeks, the only thing that could push the prices back up is a large increase in power burn. However, the $3/MMBtu gas prices a few weeks ago caused a lot of gas power generation to lose out to coal burning, which could force gas prices to remain below $3/MMBtu for the whole summer, especially if temperatures are below average. Cal '16 and '17 also faced a steep drop, hitting lows that have not been seen since late April.
