At the 2019 ADI Forum, Uday Turaga, CEO of ADI Analytics, highlighted a major shift in the energy market. The rise of associated gas—especially from shale plays like the Permian and Bakken—is reshaping natural gas production and breaking its traditional link to gas prices. Unlike conventional gas production, associated gas is a byproduct of oil drilling, meaning it keeps flowing regardless of gas prices—whether at $5 or $0.50 per MMBtu. This shift means natural gas output is now more closely tied to oil price economics than to standalone gas market fundamentals. As oil drilling expands, associated gas production grows, influencing supply, pricing trends, and long-term market dynamics.
