HOUSTON, Jan. 6 -- The US Energy Information Administration is contemplating whether to provide storage data on LNG, but no decision or timetable has been established, a spokeswoman said Tuesday.

The agency provides monthly and weekly natural gas storage data.

Last year, the EIA invited public comment regarding the interest in monthly reports on LNG storage data. Fewer than 12 comments were received, and those were wide-ranging in whether EIA should provide such reports, said a spokeswoman with the EIA natural gas division.

Currently, the EIA is reviewing those public comments and assessing the budget issues that would be involved in issuing LNG monthly data, she said.
