　　Analysts Expect 145 Billion-Cubic Feet Drain From U.S. Natural Gas Inventories

　　By Alison Sider

　　Analysts expect government data scheduled for release Thursday to show natural-gas stockpiles shrank by less than the average for this time of year.

　　The U.S. Energy Information Administration is expected to report storage levels shrank by 145.36 billion cubic feet of gas during the week ended Jan. 6, according to the average forecast of 14 analysts, brokers and traders surveyed by The Wall Street Journal.

　　For the Jan. 6 week, the median estimate is for a decrease of 144.5 bcf. Estimates range from a decrease of 184 bcf to a decrease of 125 bcf.

　　The estimate for Jan. 6 compares with 152 bcf drained from storage in the same week last year and a five-year average drain of 168 bcf for that week.
