Gas prices were pushed higher by rising Brent on Monday following the extension agreement between Russia and Saudi Arabia. The UK gas system was also short throughout the session, with on-going maintenance in Norway limiting exports to the continent. Meanwhile, the LNG outlook is weaker due to an unplanned outage at the Gorgon LNG terminal train 1 in Australia which is expected to take around a month to resolve.
