Dutch front-month gas rose 1.0% to 73.10 euros per MWh and British day-ahead gas rose 0.7% to 184 pence per therm on 1 October. EU storage sits about 12 percentage points below last year's level as the heating season begins, and Strait of Hormuz tensions keep risk premia elevated.
Persistent storage deficits and competition for flexible LNG cargoes keep European gas prices firm, which supports European energy and fertilizer input costs. The move was small, so it signals steady conditions rather than a new shock.
