Ethane has been the talk of the town this week. Mont Belvieu ethane prices have gained 16.0 c/gal since July 1 and closed at 39.8 c/gal on July 18. The price spread to Henry Hub gas has increased from $1.1/MMBtu to $3.5/MMBtu in the same time frame. This unexpected price gain now has everyone wondering: “What’s causing this rally?”
