Natural Gas and LNG Markets Bracing for Potentially Another Mild Winter
With Winter on the horizon and an upcoming election in a key player within the global natural gas and LNG market, all players in energy are patiently awaiting developments to unfold to set in motion plans for the future.
This month we present diverse commentary primarily covering the markets within North America. We have a quick brief highlighting recent declines in U.S. shale gas production, numerous recent interviews and podcasts RBAC, Inc.’s energy experts have had the pleasure of being apart of; and a check in on the current progress of the energy transition.
We hope you enjoy these articles and interviews created to give you greater insight into energy markets and the industry, all with the goal to increase your knowledge and help you make better energy decisions.

Quick Brief - Why has U.S. shale gas production declined slightly in 2024?
Compared to the first nine months of 2023, shale gas production in 2024 has actually decreased so far this year. However, the decrease is minimal with only a 1% difference. This has been driven by declines in production in prominent shale plays such as Haynesville and Utica.
Prices have also been falling at Henry Hub to the point that new record lows were being set earlier in the year. We have seen recently that producers are becoming more in tune with shifts in prices and reacting according to the rise and fall.
A mild winter last year also played a factor in falls in production and prices. With another mild winter potentially on way to end 2024, we could see similar responses from the market as we did previously.

Renewables, Reality and Evaluating the Global Energy Transition
Last year, RBAC’s James Brooks wrote the article, “Has the Energy Transition Been Cancelled?’ about the progress being made towards a global energy transition and whether the various goals outlined by countries around the world would actually be met by their target dates. Fast forward to one year later, let’s see if this rush towards renewables is just around the corner, or still far off in the distance.
