Natural gas prices plunge in Texas as producers burn off excess supply

  • Spot prices at the Waha gas trading hub in Texas fell to -$9.75 per million British thermal units, marking a historical low.
  • Insufficient natural gas transportation infrastructure in the region leads to localized surpluses and negative pricing.
  • Despite low gas prices, oil production remains profitable for drillers due to the high demand and prices for crude oil.
