—Especially for Natural Gas.
Natural gas plays a vital role in industrial operations—from powering boilers and heating systems to serving as feedstock in chemical and food manufacturing. But gas prices are tied to a volatile physical market, where factors like:
- Seasonal demand shifts
- LNG exports
- Pipeline constraints
- Regional basis differentials
- Weather events and storage levels
All contribute to unpredictable costs.
Electricity markets are similarly impacted by regulatory structures, infrastructure, and renewable adoption. But natural gas is uniquely exposed to NYMEX futures pricing and regional basis volatility, making a smart procurement strategy essential.
Wasmer helps you:
✔ Analyze your current natural gas and electric usage
✔ Understand and hedge NYMEX and basis exposure
✔ Choose between index-based, fixed, or hybrid strategies
✔ Mitigate risk with contract terms that fit your operations
✔ Optimize spend while maintaining reliability
In today’s market, energy procurement isn’t just about lowering your bill—it’s about building energy resilience.

Procurement Structures We Support
🔸Fixed-Price Contracts
Lock in a price for 6–36 months for budget certainty. Great for gas-heavy operations needing stable costs.
🔸 Index-Based Pricing
Tie your rate to monthly gas indices or electricity tariffs. Allows savings when markets drop—but comes with more risk.
🔸 NYMEX Plus Contracts (for Gas)
Split commodity (NYMEX) and basis costs. Lock one or both depending on market outlook and contract flexibility.
