LNG Deliveries Could Create U.S. Supply Pressures

August 18, 2025--Written by Daniel Graeber for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Steady U.S. natural gas production, coupled with higher exports and demand, could be a problem by the time winter rolls around, analysis from IIR Energy found. U.S. natural gas production remains slightly below recent highs of around 108.3 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) due to lower reported production along the Gulf Coast. The amount of feed gas running to liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals, meanwhile, was down from recent highs close to 17 Bcf/d due to issues at the 15.3 million-metric-ton-per-year Freeport export terminal.
