description: "U.S. LNG feedgas demand in May has dropped to an average of 18.3 Bcf/d, the lowest since October 2025, due to maintenance at multiple facilities. This represents a decrease of 1.71 Bcf/d from April. Despite this decline, high international prices and low European storage levels indicate a need for strong exports during the summer months, especially with 1.1 Bcf/d of new export capacity added since October 2025."

# Average U.S. LNG Feedgas Demand Hits Lowest Point Since October 2025

As shoulder season presses on, multiple U.S. LNG facilities are undergoing their typical maintenance cycle ahead of summer. Despite this, sustained high international pricing and low European storage levels signal the need for continued strong exports through the summer months. U.S. LNG feedgas demand in May has dropped substantially from its April average, as maintenance activities have weighed on pipeline and facility deliveries. Total U.S. feedgas demand decreased by an average of 1.71 Bcf/d, averaging 18.3 Bcf/d month-to-date. This marks the lowest monthly average since October 2025. The decline is notable given that 1.1 Bcf/d of new export capacity has come online since October 2025, driven by the addition of Corpus Christi Stage III Trains 4 & 5 and Golden Pass Train 1.
