Oil Rigs Could Heighten Natural Gas’s Bearish Sentiments

In 2008, the natural gas rig count made a record high of 1,606. From the record level in 2008, the natural gas rig count fell ~87.9% until June 15. Between January 2008 and March 2018, US natural gas marketed production rose ~50.3%—based on the EIA’s (U.S. Energy Information Administration) monthly data. Due to rising supply, natural gas active futures have fallen 62.5% since January 2008. What’s behind the rise in natural gas supplies?
