This week we can see the impact of how stricter lock down measures are meaning that demand levels continue to fall as companies are now operating from home or have ceased trading until further notice, leaving offices and factories shut.

This morning’s session has seen the UK Gas system open largely oversupplied again, as the UK could look to offload surplus supply into mainland Europe. This would add further weight to prices. A Qatari LNG tanker is expected at South Hook terminal this morning and a further import of Yamal LNG volume is expect into Dragon terminal tomorrow.

Brent Crude Oil is currently trading near 18 year low as the US, the world’s biggest oil consumer, surpassed China with the most confirmed cases of coronavirus. Prices are now so low that many producers can no longer pump crude at a profit, resulting in the shutdown of fields, while storage is also rapidly filling due to the steep contango which is also expected to curb output.

The British Pound has improved against the Euro and most the world’s largest currencies over the course of the past 24 hours but has since fallen against the U.S. Dollar amidst ongoing volatility due to the coronavirus economic crisis.

In this week’s energy market report, we can see that the UK’s gas system opened long on Friday morning, with healthy levels of Norwegian and European continental flows reported. More people have started to work from home in the last few weeks which means that forecasted demand levels for domestic consumers has been underestimated by National Grid. The announcement from Boris Johnson yesterday was that stricter measures are now being put in place to stop people from leaving their homes, unless it is absolutely essential.

Temperature forecasts have predicted cooler weather in the last few weeks, however there was warmer weather at the weekend which is expected to continue for the foreseeable future. High levels of renewable yesterday have aided downward movements with Wind generation currently making up 29% of the generation stack.

GBP was up against the Euro and the Dollar this morning following the UK government’s decision to lower interest rates to a 325-year low – from 0.25% to 0.1% to attempt to keep the UK economy afloat as COVID-19 continues to dampen domestic spending and economic forecasts.

In this week’s energy market report, we can see how milder temperatures are having an effect on the UK gas demand. Last Friday brought milder temperatures than we have seen recently and an increase in the level of wind generation, the UK system was much more balanced as gas demand reduced to the seasonal average. Norway flow remained strong at 108mcm with LNG send out just shy of 70mcm.

The decrease in demand also meant that UK Storage withdrawals fell in line to match up with it. Wind levels have increased so far this week and make up around 12% of the current generation stack with renewable sources adding up to over a quarter of the total mix.

Brent Crude Oil prices are now attempting to recoup lost ground after there were losses of c. $7/bl last week due to the Coronavirus outbreak, which continues to spread and affect trade. The prices increased by 2.75% after opening yesterday morning.
