Natural Gas Has Melted Up To $5.02 -- February 3, 2022

EQT announced it has raised its dividend to 12.5 cents. Link here. EQT is the largest natural gas producer in the Appalachian Basin. EQT has not raised its dividend since at least 2013; as far back as records are kept at this post. Unless I'm missing something or misreading something or unless there are two different "EQT"s -- this is absolutely amazing.

At the close today, natural gas "closed" at just under $5.00.

Tonight, natural gas went above $5.00. This is an orderly melt-up, not a flash-in-the-pan spike.


Also note the narrow WTI / Brent crude spread: only 74 cents.

Heavy Oil

This goes a long way explaining why US crude oil imports are increasing, or at least staying flat in light of huge amount of oil being produced in America, and something we've talked about for a decade. And why "we" needed the Keystone XL.

    2. Borg is exactly right: Bakken light can be used instead of gasoline if push came to shove.

    3. I've looked at more than a dozen LCU wells and all of them are drilling what they've been drilling all along. Nothing new, from what I can see.
