Natural Gas Prices by State

These are average delivered prices reported to EIA, not traded hub prices. One row per EIA series per period, long format: series is the EIA v2 series id, which already encodes the area and the measure, and duoarea / area_name, product_name and process_name spell it out. value is in units, which differ by series, so never add values from series with different units. Published by the U.S. EIA.

Query contract

Preserve one canonical row per (event_time, series) before aggregating.

Analysis rules

Never add values across series with different units.EIA restates recent months; read with FINAL so each (event_time, series) is one row.

Interpretation

These are average delivered prices by sector reported to EIA, not hub spot prices; never call one a hub price.Monthly survey data published with a lag of about two months; it cannot support a current-conditions claim.
