Natural gas futures carried over their slide lower for the third-straight day, pressured by rising output and lowered forecasts for demand over the next two weeks. Data provider Refinitiv said average gas output in the U.S. Lower 48 states has climbed to 95.0 billion cubic feet per day (bcfd) so far in May from 94.5 bcfd in April, off the monthly record of 96.1 bcfd in November 2021. Refinitiv projected average U.S. gas demand, including exports, would hold around 88.5 bcfd for through to mid-June, lower than Refinitiv forecast on Thursday.
