Natural Gas Dashboard
COMIDRA.COM
Comidra is a data site that organizes key commodity market data—such as natural gas and WTI crude oil—so you can grasp it at a glance. It presents multiple indicators in intuitive charts to help you quickly understand complex market moves and use them to support decision-making.
Natural Gas Investment Chart Overview
Top chart
- TDD (area): Energy-demand pressure from U.S. weather factors (HDD+CDD). Higher values indicate a stronger impact on demand.
- Dashed lines (forecasts): TDD outlooks from GFS, GFS AI, ECMWF, and AIFS.
Middle chart (last 4 updates)
- X-axis 00Z/12Z: Model update cycles in UTC.
- 7D/14D: Total TDD over the next 7/14 days. Similar values across models indicate stronger consensus.
Bottom chart (Δ changes, last 4 updates)
- Δ 12H / Δ 24H: Forecast change versus 12/24 hours earlier.
- + = revised toward a more extreme direction (higher TDD); − = revised toward a milder direction (lower TDD).
US Yearly Total Degree Days (TDD)
US Yearly Heating Degree Days (HDD)
Heating Degree Days (HDD) is a metric that shows how cold the weather is. The colder the day, the higher the HDD, meaning more heating is needed.
US Yearly Cooling Degree Days (CDD)
Cooling Degree Days (CDD) is a metric that shows how hot the weather is. The hotter the day, the higher the CDD, meaning more cooling is needed.
Surplus in natural gas refers to how much the current inventory is above or below the 5-year average. A positive surplus means higher-than-average storage, while a negative surplus indicates lower-than-average levels.
| Date | Surplus Inventory | Change |
|---|---|---|
| 2026. 5. 29 | 85.6 | |
| 2026. 6. 5 | 118.6 | ▲ +33.0 |
| 2026. 6. 12 | 113.6 | ▼ 5.0 |
US Supply (Line) and Demand (Bar)
This chart illustrates dry natural gas supply and demand. Heating season typically drives demand above supply levels.
Dry Production (Dry Natural Gas)
This refers to the volume of natural gas that remains after natural gas liquids (NGLs), water, and other impurities are removed.
Dry gas is the portion that is actually available for commercial use and sale.
This chart overlays natural gas futures prices by year, allowing you to see at a glance whether today’s price is relatively high or low compared with recent years.

U.S. Natural Gas Price and Storage
Storage refers to the underground facilities used to store excess gas. It helps balance seasonal demand, especially by supplying extra gas during the winter heating season.
| Date | Inventory | Change |
|---|---|---|
| 2026. 5. 29 | 2578 | |
| 2026. 6. 5 | 2686 | ▲ +108 |
| 2026. 6. 12 | 2759 | ▲ +73 |
US Yearly Inventory
EOS (End of Season) refers to the amount of natural gas remaining in storage at the end of the winter heating season, typically in late March. It is used to assess how much gas was withdrawn during winter and to evaluate the supply situation going into the injection season.
Gross Withdrawals (Natural Gas Production)
This is the total volume of natural gas extracted from wells each day, including all gas before processing.
It includes gas that is later re-injected, flared, vented, or removed as non-hydrocarbon gases.
| Date | Daily Production | Change |
|---|---|---|
| 2026. 1. 1 | 132.249 | |
| 2026. 2. 1 | 134.629 | ▲ +2.380 |
| 2026. 3. 1 | 135.519 | ▲ +0.890 |
Rotary Rig Count
Rotary Rig Count refers to the number of active drilling rigs currently operating to explore or develop oil and natural gas.
It is a key indicator of drilling activity and is often used to gauge future production potential.
Total is based on Oil + Gas, excluding Baker Hughes’ Miscellaneous category.
| Date | Rig Count | Change |
|---|---|---|
| 2026. 6. 5 | 124 | |
| 2026. 6. 12 | 121 | ▼ 3 |
| 2026. 6. 18 | 122 | ▲ +1 |
Europe Yearly Inventory (TWh)
This chart shows natural gas futures prices (blue) and spot prices (green) together, and lets you see at a glance whether the difference (red: futures − spot) is a premium (positive) or a discount (negative).
US CFTC Natural Gas Futures Positions (Speculative)
The Non-Commercials (Long/Short) chart shows the size of buy (long) and sell (short) positions held by big players who trade mainly for investment. If longs increase, it generally means more traders expect prices to rise; if shorts increase, it generally means more traders expect prices to fall.
US CFTC Natural Gas Futures Positions (Managed Money)
The Managed Money (Long/Short) chart focuses only on professional managers such as funds and hedge funds within the major market participants. It helps you see more clearly whether the “core money” moving the market is leaning bullish (more longs) or bearish (more shorts).
