RBN Energy: less gas available for Canadian gas storage injection this summer.
Every gas storage injection season gives us a chance to size up how supply and demand components might influence how much gas can be stuffed away in underground reservoirs prior to the next heating season. For the Canadian storage injection season that is just getting underway, a number of factors have shifted that balance, resulting in a slowing rate of gas storage builds this year. A slower build, and subsequently lower storage levels by the end of the injection season than last year, seems likely to provide solid support for Canadian gas prices. Today, we review the latest developments and outlook for gas fundamentals in Canada.
The arrival of spring in North America brings with it more temperate weather, prompting people to get outside, do some spring cleaning, and shake off the winter cobwebs. This year, even more than most, we’re looking forward to coming out of our winter burrows (or pandemic bunkers), the beginning of baseball season, and, of course, the gas storage injection season. This period, traditionally running from April 1 to October 31, takes advantage of the lower space heating demand of the spring, summer, and early fall to replenish underground storage reservoirs across North America. It is also a time when market pundits develop forecasts of how much gas will be injected, and to what level storage reservoirs will fill, by the end of October and before the kick-off of the next heating season and another round of storage withdrawals.
