Stout Winter NatGas Supply and Demand? Check. Higher Prices? Not So Much, says NGSA Chief

Stout Winter NatGas Supply and Demand? Check. Higher Prices? Not So Much, says NGSA Chief

Author: NGI: Natural Gas Intelligence October 6, 2025 Duration: 18:14
Natural Gas Supply Association President and CEO Dena Wiggins joined NGI”s Carolyn Davis, managing editor of news, to discuss the outlook this winter season for supply, demand and prices. Based on its deep assessment of the U.S. market, NGSA expects prices to be relatively flat compared with last winter. Market pressure is being offset by record production, even on the back of strong LNG exports and rising demand from artificial intelligence-powered data centers. Of course, there are wild cards, with weather the biggest one for the natural gas markets. Wiggins breaks down the outlook for storage and potential price volatility. A big issue on the table for the natural gas market is permit reform, which has been on the table in Congress in some form or fashion for a few years. The legislation, Wiggins said, is essential  to ensure there is enough infrastructure as demand rises. The NGSA chief says the fuel is no longer a bridge, but “foundational” to energy supplies domestically and abroad. Wiggins expects Congress will pass legislation to remove impediments to expanding the reach of U.S. natural gas, both to serve domestic and overseas markets.
