US natural gas falls over 6 percent to a six-week low

US Henry Hub natural gas fell more than 6 percent to 3.01 dollars per million Btu on Thursday, 9 July, its lowest in six weeks. Freeport LNG said maintenance at its pre-treatment and liquefaction facilities would begin on 10 July and run through late August; the resulting drop in demand from the export plant weighed on prices.
