Permian NatGas Price Falls to $0.12/Mcf Following Equipment Failure

But wait! MDN reported last November the price at Waha had hit minus 1 cent/Mcf--people paying someone else to take their gas (see Permian Gas at Waha Hub Briefly Trades at $0, Implications for M-U). True--but that was for a three-hour period last November. Yesterday's low price was the average for the entire day.
