Movement along the gas curve varied on Wednesday, with tight supply and a falling oil market continuing to dictate prices. The UK gas system was short as storage injection demand remained high, while an on-going outage in Norway restricted imports. Meanwhile, strong losses on the oil market contributed to bearish sentiment on the far-curve.
