Qatar Resumes LNG Shipments Through Strait of Hormuz Amid Regional Tensions
Qatar has resumed liquefied natural gas (LNG) shipments through the Strait of Hormuz after nearly halting exports following a tanker attack in late July. Recent ship-tracking data shows LNG tankers, including the Al Marrouna, transiting the waterway toward destinations like Pakistan. Several empty Qatari LNG vessels are also moving toward the Persian Gulf, indicating preparations for a wider export resumption amid ongoing regional tensions between the US and Iran. Despite disruptions, Qatar continues loading LNG and supplying regional buyers.
