On Tuesday, December 9, the U.S. Energy Information Administration will release a mock version of the Weekly Natural Gas Storage Report as a public test of our new information release system for weekly data products. Pending results of the initial public test, we plan to do an additional public test before fully implementing a new, improved information release system.
We invite data users to participate in the test and provide feedback.Weekly Natural Gas Storage Report
