The March 2009 natural gas contract on the New York Mercantile Exchange recently dipped to $4.037 per MMBtu – surpassing the prior low of $4.05 per MMBtu level hit on September 27, 2006. Energy Solutions, Inc. was anticipating some major price weakness and in preparation, they recently issued “First” Natural Gas Buying Opportunity for 2010 and Beyond, Level 1 of a three-part series designed to help businesses get better prepared for some longer-term buying opportunities. Level 1 took an in-depth look at market conditions and what to expect given growth in natural gas production, declines in industrial demand, ongoing weakness in the economy, and the drilling rig count decline.
Level 2 evaluates future natural gas prices through 2015 under two price scenarios and graphically illustrates future price comparisons to historical price levels. Together, Levels 1 and 2 provide an independent resource of information that will help energy buyers facilitate natural gas buying discussions with others to make natural gas purchasing decisions easier, more comprehensive, and thorough.
Level 3, which will be issued in the next week, goes one step further by providing categorized buying recommendations for low-risk, medium-risk, and high-risk natural gas buyers. “With the completion of Level 3, natural gas buyers will have all the information they need at their fingertips to make informed natural gas buying decisions during this period of natural gas price weakness,” says Valerie Wood, President of Energy Solutions, Inc. “The information in Level 3 is quite detailed. In fact, some of the information contained in Level 3 is similar to what we provide to our consulting clients. For that reason, Level 3 will be exclusively provided to subscribers of The Advisor only,” says Wood.
The Advisor is a newsletter specifically written for businesses as an educational tool and guide about the natural gas industry. It keeps you alert and aware of ever-changing conditions and costs associated with natural gas to help you make intelligent gas purchasing decisions by providing both weekly and monthly publications.

All the more reason to make sure that time is well spent and subscribers continually recognize the value of The Advisor beyond other publications. “Because it is compiled in a concise, specific, easy-to-read format which offers a proactive approach to natural gas buying including educated recommendations, readers save both time and money.
