US natural gas futures fell below $3.0 per MMBtu, retreating from two-month highs, pressured by elevated storage levels. The EIA report showed energy firms injected 101 bcf of gas into storage for the week ended May 15, above market expectations for a 95-bcf build and the five-year average increase of 92 bcf for the period. Additional pressure came from softer LNG export activity. Flows to major US LNG export facilities declined from a monthly record of 18.8 bcfd in April to around 17.0 bcfd so far in May, due to seasonal maintenance at facilities including Golden Pass LNG and Freeport LNG. However, losses were partly limited by forecasts pointing to mostly warmer-than-normal weather through early June, which is expected to increase cooling demand and boost gas consumption from the power sector. Supportive signals also emerged from reports that three US LNG cargoes are scheduled to arrive in China in June, marking the first such shipments since February 2025.
