Key Points
- Natural gas price news today: The Vantage NATGAS CFD was at $3.092/MMBtu as of 06:05 UTC on 11 June 2026, sitting above the MA200 at 3.075 and below the MA50 at 3.100, after a 24-cent drop from the week’s opening level followed by a sharp recovery on 10 June.
- US natural gas inventories remained around 5% above the five-year seasonal average as of the week ended 4 June 2026, per Trading Economics, a supply surplus built during a mild spring that has weighed on the natural gas price throughout June.[1]

Natural Gas Market News: What Is Moving the Price Today
Storage Surplus and Rising Production
US natural gas inventories sat around 5% above the five-year seasonal average as of the week ended 4 June 2026, according to Trading Economics, reflecting a surplus built during a mild spring.[1] In its June 2026 Short-Term Energy Outlook (STEO) released on 9 June, the Energy Information Administration (EIA) revised its 2026 dry gas production forecast up to 111.0 bcfd, citing stronger associated gas output from the Permian Basin.[3] Henry Hub spot prices averaged $2.94/MMBtu in May 2026, edging above $3.00/MMBtu toward month-end as early summer cooling demand began to lift power sector consumption.[3]
LNG Maintenance Pulling Feedgas Flows Lower
Average feedgas flows to the nine main US LNG export terminals came to 16.3 bcfd so far in June, down from 17.1 bcfd in May and well below April’s record of 18.8 bcfd.[2] Freeport LNG confirmed taking one of its three trains offline for scheduled maintenance in mid-May, which Argus Media reported continued into June.[4]
Golden Pass LNG, which began commercial exports after Train 1 started production on 30 March 2026 and shipped its first cargo in late April, confirmed a planned maintenance outage in May as the facility continued to ramp toward full Train 1 capacity, per S&P Global.[5]
The reduction in feedgas demand has kept more gas available domestically. Above-normal temperatures through at least 20 June 2026 have supported power sector gas demand, though Vaisala noted a cooler spell is expected in the Midwest and eastern US for 14–18 June.[2]

Natural Gas Price Forecast: What to Watch on 11–12 June 2026
Three items are on the natural gas market radar today:
- EIA Weekly Natural Gas Storage Report, Thursday 12 June 2026: Whether the injection figure narrows or widens the current 5% storage surplus relative to the five-year average is one factor the natural gas market is monitoring closely.[1][3]
- LNG restart timeline: Feedgas flows averaged 16.3 bcfd so far in June. The pace at which Freeport LNG and Golden Pass return to normal throughput will affect how quickly the domestic surplus moderates.[4][5]
- Weather shift, 14–18 June: Cooler-than-normal temperatures are expected in the Midwest and eastern US per Vaisala, which could ease cooling-driven gas demand over that window.[2]
Many traders may monitor $2.980 (recent low) and $3.100 (MA50) as the immediate reference zones on the Vantage CFD feed. Market participants often monitor inventory data and key chart reference levels ahead of the EIA storage report, which can generate elevated short-term volatility in the natural gas price.
