Gas supplies in the uk- fear mongering?
The reality is we actually have about 7.5 days of gas in storage based on current demand.
And our supplies haven’t yet stopped.
So tomorrow we’ll still have around 7.5 days, because gas is still flowing into the system through pipelines and LNG deliveries.
In fact, if imports and LNG deliveries continue, storage could actually increase over time.
People keep talking as if the system suddenly shuts off overnight. It doesn’t.
The UK gas network is constantly being replenished through pipelines and LNG terminals.
The real issue isn’t “we only have a week of gas.”
The real issue is that the UK now relies heavily on continuous supply rather than holding large strategic reserves like we used to.
So yes — about a week in storage, but with ongoing inflows keeping the system balanced.
The aim is to keep those pipelines / supplies flowing whilst creating enough scare mongering to justify increasing the price further.
If supplies do stop then yes we may be in trouble but at this point in time they haven't
