Power – W18 / S19 • Forties pipeline maintenance and industrial action planned during early August will tighten UK supply significantly. Bearish • Strong supply into the UK, coupled with low demand and very few unplanned disruptions to supply could weigh on near curve prices. • European gas storage levels continue to improve, with markets becoming more confident that they will achieve comfortable levels ahead of the winter period. • Temperatures remain well above the seasonal norm, dampening demand and allowing storage facilities to inject.

Backwardation Charts Gas – Winter’18 The backwardation could soon disappear if oil prices break the $80 per barrel resistance level. The main risks in oil markets are heavily influenced by geopolitics. There is the potential for a significant escalation of tensions in the Middle East as Iran reacts to tightening US sanctions. If Iran blocks the ‘Strait of Hormuz’ or restarts its Nuclear enrichment program, there could be military conflict which is likely to push oil prices much higher.
