Natural Gas Price | Historical and Forecast
Natural Gas is employed mainly as heating fuel for industrial and domestic uses, and as a building block in the synthesis of a number of basic chemical products.
ammonia; methanol; formaldehyde; acetic acid; and hydrogen.

About Natural Gas. Natural Gas comprises a mixture of gaseous hydrocarbons, primarily methane, ethane, propane and butane, having non-hydrocarbon impurities, mainly nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen sulfide. It is considered the world’s third most important energy source, after oil and coal.

The transportation of Natural Gas from producing regions to consumption regions consists of pipeline networks, that may stretch throughout many countries and areas, supplying industrial and domestic needs. For short distances, liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) can be transported in carrier ships or tank trucks.

<p><b>About Natural Gas.</b> Having a reliable source for the price of natural gas is crucial when assessing impacts of energy costs on businesses, elaborating internal commercial studies, or developing investment analyses. Natural gas is primarily used as a source of heat energy for residential, commercial, and industrial applications. It may also be used as raw material in the production of important chemicals such as ammonia, methanol, and hydrogen.</p><p>Natural gas prices are influenced by a number of supply-side and demand-side factors. Three major supply-side factors that impact on the natural gas prices are level of natural gas in storage, amount of natural gas production, and natural gas imports and exports. Three major demand-side factors are availability and prices of other fuels, variations in winter and summer weather, and level of economic growth.</p><p>In addition, other relevant aspects impacting the price of natural gas are related to the logistics of its supply. For instance, the transportation infrastructure of natural gas from producing regions to consumption regions consists of pipeline networks, that may stretch throughout many countries and areas, supplying industrial and domestic needs. For short distances, liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) can be transported in carrier ships or tank trucks.</p>
