Analysts: Prices Going Down, ‘Like We Said’
It’s not a question of “if” but rather “when” the market will see sub-$3/Mcf natural gas, Raymond James & Associates Inc. analysts said in a research note last week in which they took a bow for calling the bear market early and predicted more pain to come for gas producers.

Oregon Energy Report: LNG Not Needed
It would be less expensive and less carbon-intensive to get additional future natural gas supplies via interstate pipelines from the Rocky Mountains rather than imported liquefied natural gas (LNG), according to a recent report from the Oregon Department of Energy. Rockies supplies can be produced with significantly less life cycle greenhouse gas (GHG) impact than gas from LNG imports, said the report, which was ordered by Gov. Ted Kulongoski.
