Brazil Country Analysis Brief - April 2019
Apr 18, 2019
In 2017, Brazil was the eighth-largest energy consumer in the world and the third-largest energy consumer in the Americas, behind the United States and Canada. Discoveries of large, offshore, pre-salt oil deposits have transformed Brazil into a major world producer of petroleum and other liquids.

U.S. natural gas stocks end heating season at the lowest level since 2014
Apr 11, 2019
Working natural gas in storage in the Lower 48 states as of March 31, the traditional end of the heating season (November 1–March 31), totaled 1,137 billion cubic feet (Bcf), according to EIA’s Weekly Natural Gas Storage Report released on April 11. As of March 31, estimated working gas stocks were 491 Bcf (30%) lower than the current five-year (2014–18) average for the end of the heating season. The 2018–19 heating season had the lowest level of working gas stocks in the United States for this time of year since 2014, when working gas stocks ended the 2013–14 heating season at 837 Bcf because of multiple, intense cold snaps. In 2018, working gas stocks ended the winter at 1,360 Bcf.
Liquefied natural gas imports played a key role in reducing price spikes in New England this winter
Apr 11, 2019
During winter 2018–19, timely natural gas supply provided by imports of liquefied natural gas (LNG) at major regasification facilities serving New England played an important role in moderating natural gas prices in the region. The chart below shows that deliveries from regional LNG regasification facilities or sendout (the brown line) generally increased, especially during peak demand periods in January and February, in response to spot natural gas prices (the blue line) at the Algonquin Citygate, a widely referenced trading hub and benchmark for natural gas prices in New England.
Short-Term Energy Outlook
Apr 9, 2019
For the 2019 summer driving season that runs from April through September, EIA forecasts that U.S. regular gasoline retail prices will average $2.76 per gallon (gal), down from an average of $2.85/gal last summer. EIA’s forecast is discussed in its Summer Fuels Outlook. The lower forecast gasoline prices primarily reflect EIA’s expectation of lower crude oil prices in 2019. For all of 2019, EIA expects U.S. regular gasoline retail prices to average $2.60/gal and gasoline retail prices for all grades to average $2.71/gal, which would result in the average U.S. household spending about $100 (4%) less on motor fuel in 2019 compared with 2018.
Natural gas design capacity and demonstrated peak capacity both declined slightly in 2018
Apr 8, 2019
During the past five years, only a small amount of new underground natural gas storage capacity was built in the Lower 48 states and no new storage facilities have entered operation in that time. EIA measures underground natural gas storage capacity in two ways: design capacity and demonstrated maximum working gas volume (or demonstrated peak). Both of these metrics showed decreases in 2018, with design capacity falling by 0.3%, or 13 Bcf, and demonstrated peak capacity falling by 1.2%, or 54 Bcf.
Quarterly Coal Report (QCR), October–December 2018

Fourth-quarter 2018 U.S. coal exports (28.5 MMst) decreased 2.1% from third-quarter 2018 and increased 0.9% from the fourth-quarter 2018 level. U.S. coal imports in fourth-quarter 2018 totaled 1.6 MMst. All data for 2017 and previous years are final. All data for 2018 are preliminary.

U.S. Movements of Crude Oil By Rail
Mar 29, 2019
Monthly data on rail movements of crude oil have been updated for January 2019. Crude oil movements by rail have significantly increased over the past five years.

Natural Gas Monthly
Mar 29, 2019
In January 2019, for the 21st consecutive month, dry natural gas production increased year to year for the month. The preliminary level for dry natural gas production in January 2019 was 2,746 billion cubic feet (Bcf), or 88.6 Bcf/d. This level was 10.7 Bcf/d (13.7%) higher than the January 2018 level of 77.9 Bcf/d. The average daily rate of dry natural gas production for January was the second highest for any month since EIA began tracking monthly dry natural gas production in 1973.

Near-month natural gas futures prices remain less than $3/MMBtu
Mar 27, 2019
Despite U.S. working natural gas stocks that in the past would have been low enough to cause market activity that resulted in very high prices, recent prices of natural gas in the United States remain relatively low. Increasing natural gas production in the United States is likely the key factor that has moderated natural gas price increases given the level of Lower 48 natural gas storage inventories.

Monthly Energy Review
Mar 26, 2019
The Monthly Energy Review is EIA's comprehensive report on recent and historical energy statistics. Preliminary data indicate that U.S. total primary energy consumption equaled 101 quadrillion British thermal units (Btu) in 2018. This total was the highest since at least 1949, the earliest year for which EIA has data. U.S. total primary energy production totaled 96 quadrillion Btu in 2018, which was also the highest total since at least 1949.
Working natural gas stocks decrease to all-time low in the Pacific region
Mar 26, 2019
Working gas stocks in the Pacific totaled 96 billion cubic feet (Bcf) for the week ending March 15, 2019—the lowest level ever reported for the region since implementation of the five-region model for the Weekly Natural Gas Storage Report (WNGSR), dating back to 2010. The previous lowest level reported for the Pacific region occurred in 2014, when working gas fell to 102 Bcf for the week ending March 28, 2014. The Pacific region is highly dependent on natural gas storage stocks because it has little indigenous natural production. The Pacific region imports most of its natural gas from distant supply basins in Western Canada, the Rocky Mountains, and the Southwest.

Algeria Country Analysis Brief
Mar 25, 2019
Algeria is a major crude oil and natural gas producer in Africa and has been an OPEC member since 1969. Algeria exports a large amount of its crude oil and natural gas production to Europe. Many of the crude oil fields in Algeria are mature, and the country is likely to see declines in production if additional upstream investment does not occur.
