  • 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.
