Permian hub pricing
Waha gas price and Permian constraint context for API workflows.
Waha is the gas-specific wedge for teams watching Permian basis, takeaway pressure, and Henry Hub spreads. Use the latest price endpoint for Waha, then compare it to Henry Hub through the configured WAHA_HH basis pair.
Basis pair
WAHA_HH
Compare Waha against Henry Hub in USD/MMBtu.
Source and caveat
- Last source update
- The API latest-price response returns the current source timestamp for NATURAL_GAS_WAHA.
- Cadence
- Commodity price cadence by feed and market session; inspect the returned timestamp before use.
- Caveat
- Waha hub price and basis data are not real-time pipeline flow data and do not guarantee capacity availability.
