Analysts expect an especially strong triple-digit draw -- the first of the season -- when the Energy Information Administration makes its report Thursday for the week ended Dec. 10

摘要

The Dow Jones analysts' survey foresees a 164 Bcf draw, with estimates ranging from 150 Bcf to 192 Bcf. The analysts' consensus is just above the 153 Bcf to 163 Bcf range suggested by Bentek Energy pipeline data. Last year, the EIA reported a 207 Bcf injection for the week. The five-year average draw is around 153 Bcf, according to Dow Jones.
