A recent Reuters poll found that analysts have trimmed their US natural gas price estimates for 2011 and 2012 due to rising shale gas supplies, though increasing demand and a slowdown in drilling could lend support further out. Some expect production growth to slow in 2012 as producers finally slow drilling, but most analysts agreed projected gains in demand are not likely to be enough to soak up the excess supply.

New drilling techniques have resulted in an oversupply of Natural Gas, which has kept prices down since the recession.
