  • US Natural Gas Prices Slide Amid High Storage Expectations Despite Weather and Supply Risks
    April 29, 2026, 5:46 PM EDT. U.S. natural gas prices fell 1.64% on Wednesday as markets weighed expectations of a large storage build. The Energy Information Administration (EIA) is forecast to report a weekly inventory increase of 83 billion cubic feet (bcf), surpassing the five-year average of 63 bcf for this period. Current stockpiles stand 7.1% above the seasonal average, pressuring prices downward. However, forecasts of below-normal temperatures across most of the eastern U.S. could raise heating demand, limiting losses. Production remains near record highs with 109.9 bcf/day from the lower-48 states. Geopolitical risks including the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and damage at Qatar's Ras Laffan LNG export facility add medium-term support by tightening global supply.
