EIA Sees Continued Gas Strength in 2020

The US Energy Information Administration (EIA), in a Short-Term Energy Outlook (Steo) released January 14, said US dry gas production will rise again this year after posting a record in 2019, but prices at Henry Hub will weaken further, before recovering slightly in 2021.

Dry natural gas production averaged a record 92bn ft3/day in 2019, the EIA said, and will increase again in 2020, to 94.7bn ft3/day. Production will slip in 2021, however, to 94.1bn ft3/day as Appalachian output shifts from growth this year to decline in 2021.
