Forecasting the FutureIf you want a 98% probability prediction
then…If we experience a warm winter the price will
go down and the schools will consume lessIf we experience a cold winter the price will go
up and the schools will consume more
Now back to the real world, assuming normal weather, MEL believes futures prices will increase to the $4.00 - $5.00 range during 2014-2015

Why is MEL So Bullish - #3 Producers Aren’t Drilling for Natural Gas on Purpose Anymore
• Producers are looking for oil and natural gas liquids• The three big liquids fields are the Bakken (ND), Eagle Ford (TX), and Utica (OH)• Gas from oil wells is referred to as “associated gas”• The only profitable dry gas field appears to be the Marcellus (PA/WV)
