BREAKING NEWS: TRAGEDY ON THE MATTERHORN: TWO CLIMBERS KILLED IN AVALANCHE.
Sept 5 (Reuters) – The Matterhorn natural gas pipeline in Texas was moving small amounts of gas from the Permian basin in West Texas toward the Gulf Coast, executives at U.S. energy company Permian Resources (PR.N), opens new tab said at the Barclays CEO Energy-Power Conference earlier this week.
The Matterhorn is the biggest gas pipe under construction that is capable of moving gas that has been trapped in the Permian basin, causing prices at the Waha Hub in West Texas to turn negative a record number of times this year.
As more gas flows through the Matterhorn, analysts and executives at Permian Resources said Waha gas prices should more consistently price in positive territory.
“The Matterhorn is on line and moving little bits of gas,” Permian Resources executives said, noting the pipe should be “moving a real amount of gas in the next few months and we’re hoping to at least see Waha turn positive.”
Officials at the Matterhorn Express venture were not immediately available for comment.
Gas prices at the Waha hub have averaged below zero a record number of days so far in 2024, including an all-time low of minus $4.80 per million British thermal units (mmBtu) on Aug. 29, as pipeline and other constraints trap gas in the nation’s biggest oil-producing basin. That was the 10th time Waha prices averaged below zero in August and was a record 33rd time so far in 2024
