Similar to diesel, gas prices are mostly down across the board – with the exception of the Midwest, which is up 4 cents to $2.268 from $2.228.According to EIA’s petroleum report, the combination of significant U.S. propane production has increased over the past seven years and slow domestic growth has reversed historical trade positions. “The United States has gone from being a net propane importer to a net exporter, facilitated by rapid expansion in export capacity of domestic supply,” EIA states. “Propane exports from the United States are changing traditional propane market patterns across the globe.”
