Natural Gas Natural gas futures were among the quarter's key decliners -LRB--7.5 %, to US$ 2.73 per million British thermal units) as production growth outweighed seasonal consumption and higher exports of the fuel.1 Spot prices saw an even larger drop of 20.6 % (to US$ 2.81) as the support of December's weather - related demand spikes faded and a more normal winter pattern developed.1 Natural gas generally took its downward price cues from elevated US production and growth in the natural gas - focused rig count, which increased from 179 to 194 in March alone.2 Despite the price drop, traders remained optimistic given surging US shale - gas exports and a supply deficit that was 20 % larger than the five - year average at March - end, the biggest in four years.3 Moreover, total natural gas inventories of 1.38 trillion cubic feet were nearly 33 % below their year - ago level.3 Meanwhile, the market appeared focused on an anticipated production surge (2018 is projected to be a record growth year for gas supplies) and may have overlooked intensifying demand as US exports increasingly helped drain su

The stark drop in
natural gas prices from an all - time high
of more than $ 15
per 1,000

feet of sediment, eventually turning into the rich source
of hydrocarbons we have today.The shale was first tapped in 2008 and now has around 20 active fields good producing over 900 million
cubic feet per day
of natural gas.

cubic feet (tcf)
of natural gas available domestically.63 The U.S. currently uses approximately 22 tcf
per year.64 If the shale deposits meet their potential, these finds will certainly help accelerate the retirement

If the U.S. were instead to use that
natural gas to generate electricity as part
of a portfolio with renewable sources
of electricity, the analysis shows that «if the entire vehicle fleet were converted to electric vehicles and high efficiency
natural gas combined - cycle power plants were used to generate all the additional electricity required, the increase in
natural gas demand would be significantly less» than if the entire fleet was burning
natural gas in its combustion engines — roughly a decrease in
natural gas usage
of 19 billion
cubic feet per day.
