EU Gas Storage Levels Today — Live 2026 Tracker (plus US SPR & LNG)

European gas storage stood at 70.87% full on the GIE AGSI+ direct read for gas day 26 September 2026 (801.99 TWh), refilling at about +0.20 points a day — just below the rate needed for the 80% November target. This page tracks it daily through the 2026 injection season, alongside US crude and SPR inventories and global LNG.

What is AGSI+, and where do these numbers come from?

AGSI+ (Aggregated Gas Storage Inventory) is the transparency platform run by Gas Infrastructure Europe, the association of European storage operators. Operators report the gas held in every EU underground storage site daily, and AGSI+ publishes the aggregate as a fill percentage and an energy volume in TWh, with a one-day lag. It is the primary source behind every European gas storage figure on this site and the number the EU’s own storage regulation is measured against.

GEF reads AGSI+ directly and re-verifies each figure against the platform on every update. The current read — 70.87% full, 801.99 TWh, status 27 September 2026 at 06:00 CEST (gas day 26 September) — is the basis for the trajectory projection below. Where GEF states a seasonal norm or a gap to it, that is GEF’s own calculation against the AGSI+ five-year series, and is labelled as such.

~70.87%

GEF direct GIE read, gas day 26 Sep (801.99 TWh). +0.20pp/day over 14 days. BORDERLINE for the relaxed 80% Nov 1 target.

285 Mbbl

285.0 Mbbl, w/e Sep 11 (EIA) — lowest since 1982, ~40% of 714 Mbbl capacity; weekly draws slowed to ~0.4 Mbbl.

3,351 Bcf

w/e Sep 18 (EIA): +53 Bcf w/w; 95 Bcf (2.9%) above the 5-yr average, 146 Bcf below a year ago.

Why It Matters

Storage is the buffer between a disrupted supply chain and a winter shortage, and this autumn every buffer on this page is thinner than it looks. EU gas stood at 70.87% on GEF’s direct read for 26 September against a five-year norm of roughly 86–89%, with Germany at 57.02%, its lowest September in 15 to 20 years; it is refilling at about +0.20 points a day, just below what the relaxed 80% target needs. The US SPR is at its lowest since 1982, and the US natural gas surplus — the cushion behind the LNG Europe depends on — has narrowed from 6.6% to 2.9% above average since July. Qatari LNG cannot leave the Gulf in volume while Hormuz is closed. A disruption at one node propagates through the whole system; storage is where it shows up last, and hardest.
