Renewed military tensions in the Middle East are disrupting LNG shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, raising concerns over energy supplies and prices. The slowdown in cargo movement could tighten LNG availability across Asia, leading to increased import costs for India, which heavily relies on overseas energy supplies.
The Strait of Hormuz accounts for nearly 20% of global oil transportation and a significant portion of LNG shipments. Recent attacks on commercial ships have reversed recovery gains made by QatarEnergy and ADNOC in June, intensifying shipping risks.
