The calendar is moving closer to summer, but the Northeast gas market has still not quite shaken the shoulder season. Demand within the region was 15.9 Bcf/d during the week ended May 26 which is 0.6 Bcf/d lower than the prior week. Most of the decline came from a 0.4 Bcf/d drop in gas-for-power demand, but Res/Comm demand also fell by 0.1 Bcf/d as did industrial demand. Net outflows from the Northeast to other regions ticked up by only 0.1 Bcf/d relative to the previous week.
