Latest Market Update
August 2025: Natural Gas Market Analysis
Updated: Aug 26, 2025Natural gas prices have shown significant volatility in recent weeks due to changing weather patterns and storage levels. Current inventory stands at 2.8 trillion cubic feet, 5% below the five-year average. With forecasts indicating warmer-than-normal temperatures through September, we expect continued price pressure in the near term.
Key Market Drivers
- Storage levels remain below seasonal averages
- Extended weather forecasts suggest above-normal cooling demand
- LNG export facilities operating at 95% capacity
- Industrial demand showing steady recovery
Price Outlook
We anticipate natural gas prices to trade in the $3.20-3.60/MMBtu range through September, with potential upside risk if weather patterns remain warmer than expected.
