Permian Basin Gas Price and Fundamentals July 17th, 2026

As of today, Waha cash prices have been positive for 32 consecutive days! Producers rejoice and thank new infrastructure. Cash prices firmed from just under $1.00/MMbtu to $1.63 for July 17ths flow date. The price relief in both cash and the curve has come from the early startup of both GCX and Hugh Brinson. Energy Transfer's Hugh Brinson pipeline has started flowing natural gas ahead of schedule. The additional capacity from Hugh Brinson, along with GCX, has helped support Permian prices over the last month. The Hugh Brinson pipeline was this week's dominant theme. It began flowing gas June 13, months ahead of its planned Q4 in-service date (per FERC filing PR26-71, July 10); it operated in intrastate service for 30+ days first, possibly starting as early as mid-May. Hugh Brinson is a greenfield 400-mile line from Waha to Maypearl (south of Dallas-Fort Worth), Phase 1 capacity 1.5 Bcf/d. As a result of this new egress Permian production has seen an uptick, flowing over 25 Bcf/d a day at one point last week. Analysts have been reporting that producers who were curtailing volumes, either shut in or flaring, have started to bring back those molecules as new pipeline capacity comes online. Just like the cash markets, both the prompt month and the balance of the summer strip for Waha Basis improved this week. With the prompt month rising up to -$1.26 and the balance of summer now (Aug through October) trading at $-1.28.
