The market is expecting a withdrawal for the week ending Mar. 25 that could exceed the seasonal norm when the US Energy Information Administration releases storage data Thursday

摘要

Analyst Stephen Smith is modeling a pull of 29 Bcf, while FirstEnergy's Martin King is modeling a 20 Bcf withdrawal. This compares with last year's 10 Bcf draw and the 22 Bcf five-year pull. 'Winter’s last gasp may have been last week, which saw a brief shot of cool air hit the Midwest and Northeast, and was enough to push up space heating loads and tilt storage back to a withdrawal,' King said.
