1 Kyle Cooper, (713) , Week Ending January 5, 2018 Please contact me to review a joint RBN Energy daily publication detailing natural gas fundamentals. Price Action: The February contract fell 15.8 cents (5.4%) to $2.795 on a cent range ($3.097/$2.746). Price Outlook: Prices retreated despite record demand as weather forecasts called for a significant in the coming 15 days. Despite record supply, the upcoming storage report is projected to reveal a withdrawal well over 300 bcf, shattering the current record 287 bcf withdrawal. None-the-less, the market slipped as weather forecasts turned bearish. The current 15-day forecast is warmer than 7 of the previous 10 years. CFTC data indicated a huge increase in the managed money net long position as longs added and shorts covered. The net long position is the largest since December 5, Total open interest fell 25,000 to million as of January 2. Aggregated CME futures open interest fell to million as of January 5. Open interest in the February $4.00 call rose +5,936 to 124,185. Open interest in the February $3.50 call rose +5,440 to 98,035. Open interest in the March $2.50 put rose +7,557 to 47,213. Weekly Storage: US working gas storage for the week ending December 29 indicated a working gas storage withdrawal of (206) bcf. Working gas inventories fell to 3,126 bcf. Current inventories fall (185) bcf (5.6%) below last year and (207) bcf (6.2%) below the 5-year average. Storage Outlook: Our EIA weekly storage estimate was 5 bcf from the actual EIA implied flow and is within our tolerance for a Christmas Holiday week. The 5-week summation of our error fell to 11 bcf and is within our tolerance. The EIA has reported a net implied flow of (567) bcf over the last 5 weeks compared to our estimated (556) bcf. The forecasts use a 10-year rolling temperature profile past the 15-day forecast. Supply Trends: Total supply rose +0.1 bcf to 75.8 bcf/d. LNG imports rose and Mexican exports fell. US production and Canadian imports were unchanged. LNG exports rose. The US Baker Hughes rig count fell (5) with oil activity lower and natural gas unchanged. The total US rig count now stands at 924. The Canadian rig count rose 38 to 174. Thus, the total North American rig count rose +33 to 1,098 and now exceeds last year by 228. The higher efficiency US horizontal rig count rose +2 to 798 and rises 264 above last year. Demand Trends: Total demand rose 16.7 bcf/d to bcf/d. All sectors were higher, except industrial which was unchanged. Electricity demand rose +5,609 gigawatt-hrs to 82,002 which exceeds last year by +9,184 (12.6%) and exceeds the 5-year average by +6,969 (9.3%). Nuclear Generation: Nuclear generation rose +2,421 MW in the reference week to 96,903 MW. This is +4,560 MW higher than last year and +3,427 MW higher than the 5-year average. Recent output was at 96,891 MW. The heating season is nearing its midpoint.
