Day-Ahead gas displayed a rise towards the end of yesterday’s session as the system fell short following a decline in Norwegian supply. A colder weather forecast for today and the weekend also provided support, with a rise in demand levels expected. However, falling Brent and the return of milder weather next week helped contracts move down further along the curve.

Weaker residential demand and healthy supply levels weighed on gas contracts yesterday. Demand rose to 139mcm, compared to 116mcm on Friday but still remains well below the seasonal norm, while stronger wind levels lessened the UK’s need for gas-fired generation. The UK gas system was oversupplied as a result, also helped by strong Norwegian imports and a rise in LNG send-outs.

Gas prices moved higher Friday morning as an outage at the South Hook LNG terminal reduced supply levels in the UK. However, the outage was resolved in the afternoon and a milder weather forecast helped contracts to shed from their price, with further bearish pressure coming from an oversupplied system.
