US natural gas benchmark Henry Hub continued to climb at the start of the week, hitting an intraday high of USD 7.2/MMBtu and later settling at a one-month high.
Forecasts for colder weather across much of the US once again prompted the front-month Henry Hub contract to rally, with the December-dated contract closing at USD 6.94/MMBtu.
Across the pond, European gas prices continued to dip amid mild, windy weather – helping keep a lid on gas demand and withdrawals from brimming gas inventories.
TTF fell 3.5% to close at the equivalent of USD 32.14/MMBtu, with NBP down 4% to settle at USD 30.66/MMBtu.
Asian LNG marker JKM fell back into the red, closing 6% lower at USD 27.2/MMBtu.
As for crude, Brent and WTI dipped at the start of the week following strong gains on Friday, with the fall pinned on uncertainty over China relaxing Covid-19 restrictions.
