Underground stocks finished the last full week of July at 3,249 Bcf, or 16% above the five-year average, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA). There are 14 more weekly government storage reports left for this injection season, including Thursday’s EIA report, for which NGI has modeled a 30 Bcf build.
