Specifically, the price of the European benchmark gas futures contract increased by 2.1% at one point on July 8.

European gas inventories are well stocked at this time of year but the global market on which the region depends has seen some disruptions recently.

Gas prices in the region have risen more than 20% since traders began stockpiling in April.

The risk the market is closely watching is that Hurricane Beryl, which is making landfall on the Texas coast, will disrupt liquefied natural gas (LNG) operations there.

Freeport LNG's liquefaction facility announced a production cut.

In Europe, an unplanned shutdown at the UK’s Tolmount facility continued into the evening of July 8. Hotter-than-normal weather conditions gripping parts of Asia have also increased demand for gas to generate electricity.

“Europe’s growing reliance on LNG means gas prices will remain highly vulnerable to unplanned supply outages and weather changes in Europe or Asia,” wrote BloombergNEF analysts Iryna Sereda and Alireza Nahvi.
