According to the Weekly Natural Gas Storage Report by the U.S. Energy Information Administration the amount of working nat gas in storage has grown this week by 65 billion cubic feet (Bcf). The report states there is a total of 3,006 Bcf in storage. This is a decrease of about 7.7% from a year ago, it is, however, 1.5% higher than the 5-year average.
