Gas prices displayed mixed movement yesterday and were dictated by a strengthening oil market in the afternoon, despite a healthy supply/ demand picture. Upward movement on the near-curve was limited slightly as the Pound strengthened against the Euro, while the milder weather forecast also offered support to the bears. Demand levels were slightly higher than Monday which tightened the gas system somewhat but overall fundamentals remain healthy.

Gas prices were on the rise on Friday, despite weaker demand levels with direction coming from a stronger oil market.

Gas prices decreased on Thursday as temperatures are set to turn milder over the next fortnight. However, an unplanned outage at a Dutch storage facility impacted BBL flows which limited the losses somewhat. Meanwhile a sharp rise in oil prices offered some support to far-curve contracts later in the session.
