- Industrial Demand showed additional weather-adjusted demand in August, a long awaited source of incremental demand that should continue the uptrend.
- Despite similar levels of dry gas production to Aug of last year, Lease and Plant Fuel was below '15 by 0.09 BCFD, a reversal of a half year trend.
- Record electric power demand, which is already widely acknowledged. it was up 4.1 BCFD over Aug 2015.
- The curious decrease in richness seen in May-July was reversed, and BTU content rebounded by 3 BTUs/MCF.
