CNX Resources delays some production activities, expects decline in volumes
March 12 (Reuters) - U.S. energy firm CNX Resources said on Tuesday it expects lower production volumes in 2024 as it is delaying some well completion activities amid weak natural gas prices.
Producers of natural gas are curbing their output and spending on drilling activity, as an oversupplied market has brought prices of the commodity down to multi-decade lows.
