The Energy Depatment's Energy Information Administration said in its weekly report that natural gas in storage grew by 37 billion cubic feet to 3.831 trillion cubic feet for the week ended Nov. 4.

Analysts expected a rise of 31 billion to 35 billion cubic feet, according to a survey by Platts, the energy information arm of McGraw-Hill Cos.

The inventory level was 5.9 percent above the five-year average of 3.616 trillion cubic feet, and 0.2 percent below last year's level of 3.837 trillion cubic feet, according to the government data.

Natural gas rose 2 cents to $3.67 per 1,000 cubic feet in New York.
