Close the sidebarFormer U.S. Energy Secretary Dan Brouillette argues the situation in Texas following a storm shows the importance of having 'a diverse energy supply.' and gas prices continued to climb Tuesday morning as frigid wintry weather choked off wells and refineries and shut-in natural gas production in Texas and Oklahoma and left millions of people without power.West Texas Intermediate crude oil rose 19&nbsp;cents to $59.66 per barrel while natural gas climbed 21.3&nbsp;cents, or 7.31%, to $3.125&nbsp;per thousand cubic feet. RBOB gasoline was higher by 6.2 cents to $1.7545 per gallon. “This is a temporary event,” said Stewart Glickman, analyst at CFRA Research. Higher prices will “persist until we can get past blackout stages, power lines get repaired and things get back to normal.” The icy weather conditions have knocked about 3 million barrels of crude oil production, or about 15% of U.S. output, offline. At the same time, natural gas production has been shut-in and the fractionators that turn natural gas liquids into propane are seeing increased demand. Shares of natural gas producers rose in tandem with prices.Ticker Security Last Change Change % CNX RESOURCES CORP. 16.91 -0.45 -2.59% RANGE RESOURCES CORP. 31.47 -0.53 -1.66% ANTERO RESOURCES CORP. 39.89 -1.43 -3.46% Parts of Texas will continue to see below-normal temperatures through at least the middle of this week with up to six inches of snow expected into Thursday morning.
