Marcellus/Utica and Permian Go Head-to-Head to Supply Gulf Coast

We've been keeping an eye on natural gas supplies coming out of the ground in the Permian (West Texas and eastern New Mexico) for more than a year. Why? Because all that associated gas being produced in the Permian has to go somewhere, and increasingly it goes to places where Marcellus/Utica gas also goes. A potent competitor. A year ago we told you about Permian and M-U gas competing in Midwestern markets (see Permian NatGas Increasingly Competes with M-U in Midwest). But it's not just in the Midwest. Both plays increasingly now compete to supply markets along the Gulf Coast.
