EIA Natural Gas Monthly - October 2013

The EIA is still catching up from the government shutdown, and released the October 2013 NG Monthly a week late today.  Dry production was up 0.42 BCFD over 2012.

The NG trade balance improved, consistent with the long term trend and the expectations going forward.  Net imports were down, which was a combination of much lower net imports from Canada, and lower exports to Mexico.  Overall, net imports were down 0.75 BCFD from October 2012.
