  • US Natural Gas Prices Surge Amid Persistent Arctic Cold and Supply Disruptions
    January 30, 2026, 6:08 PM EST. March Nymex natural gas prices surged over 11% on Friday, supported by a significant inventory draw and ongoing Arctic cold across the US. The cold spell increased heating demand and disrupted production, with about 15% of US natural gas output offline temporarily due to freeze-ups. Despite production nearing record highs, forecast cuts and prolonged low temperatures signal continued price strength. Inventories fell by 242 billion cubic feet last week, exceeding expectations. However, US electricity output declined 6.3% year-on-year, a slight bearish factor for gas demand. Overall, persistent cold, production challenges, and inventory draws underpin natural gas price gains, pushing them toward multi-year highs amid winter weather pressures.
