Events

GBSI-US Events surface discrete developments that materially affect the US gas balance.

They highlight periods where conditions deviate meaningfully from normal behaviour, complementing the continuous view provided by signals.

What GBSI-US Events capture

Events may reflect:

  • Abrupt changes in demand conditions
  • Supply disruptions or recoveries
  • Structural shifts in balance dynamics
  • Periods where stress thresholds are breached

Events are time-bounded, allowing users to analyse when a development began, how long it persisted, and how conditions evolved thereafter.

Typical use cases

  • Monitoring emerging stress conditions
  • Post-event analysis and attribution
  • Linking market outcomes to underlying developments
  • Reviewing historical stress episodes

Accessing GBSI-US Events

from snowtrail import Snowtrail
client = Snowtrail(api_key="your-api-key")

# Fetch GBSI-US events (e.g. storage surprise)
df = client.gbsi_us.storage_surprise(date_from="2024-01-01")

# All methods return pandas DataFrames
print(df.head())

GBSI-US Events provide discrete context around changes in balance conditions.
