Most Under-Reported Energy Story Last Week -- Natural Gas -- November 10, 2020

Updates

November 10, 2020: see first comment re: NASCAR! Whoo-hoo!!

Original Post 

"Focus on Fracking" is linked at the sidebar at the right; it has been moved near the top of the sidebar so that folks find it more easily. 

Look at the lede this week:

EIA reports largest October natural gas storage draw on record; October's gas inventory build is smallest on record. 

I completely missed that and the individual that posts "Focus on Fracking" assumes almost everyone missed that little gem. 

I was going to post the anyway, but it coincidentally dovetails with the blog by RBN Energy that was posted today. This is huge. Of course, President-elect Biden has promised to end fracking, federal fossil fuel leasing, etc., so this won't last. By this time next year, we will all be using electricity generated by windmills and drivings Teslas. 

See this link. The one week I fail to post the graphic/data, is the one week that the graphic/data is most striking. 

From a reader: I live twenty miles north of the Iowa border in Minnesota. In October, 2020, werecieved in three different snows total of 10 inches of snow. Also the morning low October 25, 2020, was 17 degrees, October 26, 16 degrees and October 27, it was a bone chilling 7 degrees. Check the Fairmont weather service if you need verification.

  1. Chase Elliott for the win was a nice "Feel good" story.

    1. Wow, isn't that the truth. Thank you for the note and reminding me. I was traveling from Tucson to Dallas that day (the race, by the way, in Phoenix, was just up the road from Tucson) and was unable to watch it on television. But, get this, I was able to listen to it on the radio. Wow. I was amazed I found the station. I had to search, but I found it. The last 25 laps were the most exciting -- hoping that no caution would come out. And the last five laps I was a nervous wreck -- I really wanted him to win after this season .... I forget, was it Chase Elliott or one of the other front-runners that failed pre-race inspection and had to start at the back of the field. Great story.

  2. Yup technical fault in pre race inspection.

    1. LOL. Great attitude. And, if you are not caught, you weren't cheating. You are only cheating if you get caught. LOL. Ah,pretty funny.

  3. i only saw one report that seemed to have part of the early natural gas draw story, from Wood MacKenzie...but i couldn't be sure how much of it they noticed because they wanted $1700 for their report:

    of course, my report costs much less...
