In my former job I saw offers for OTC contracts for natural gas derivatives -- I was focused on this for a little while as we had a consultant in telling us that nat gas would be 3.00-3.50 in 2008 -- my bosses retort was always -- "if you are so sure, why aren't you selling the crap out of NG with these OTC derivatives" -- which at the time were priced around 5.80 if I remember correctly.

All I know is that the money center banks like this stuff -- the longer term ...

I read contrary investor, too and realize the bulk of the OTC market for derivatives is interest rates -- but you have to realize that is one big whopping market -- so even if oil or nat gas derivatives is a small market compared to that -- it can still be quite large -- I am not sure what the volumes are compared to actively traded futures, but I imagine such information can be looked up??
