US Natgas Prices Fall Ahead EIA Data in General Energy News 15/05/2026 US natural gas futures fell to $2.8116 per MMBtu ahead of the weekly federal storage report, with markets expecting energy firms to have added a near-normal 85 billion cubic feet of gas into storage last week. That compares with an injection of 109 billion cubic feet during the same week last year and a five-year average build of 84 billion cubic feet. If confirmed, total stockpiles would rise to 2.290 trillion cubic feet, around 2.3% above year-ago levels and 6.5% above the five-year average. Production has softened in recent weeks as some producers, including EQT, curtailed output due to persistently weak spot prices. Meanwhile, gas flows to major US export facilities declined from a monthly record due to seasonal maintenance work at several plants, including Freeport LNG in Texas and Cameron LNG in Louisiana.
