US currently has an oversupply of natural gas ... storage has been exceeding the 5-yr average for awhile, prices plummetted (until just the last 2-3 weeks), and many domestic natural gas producers still have production shut-in. Rig count remains anemic, and inadequate gas transportation (pipeline capacity) exists to move gas out of the Rockies (still).

This graph shows storage maxed out ... Link to Graph

Thanks for explaning what you meant.

And yet we continue to import more than we export.

While the price has dropped greatly from the 2008 insanity, it still is not a very low price historically.

And the price to the residential consumer hasn't exactly plummetted from "normal" pricing.
