What happened
Iranian strikes near Qatar's Ras Laffan complex in March knocked out 17% of the country's LNG export capacity. Flows through the Strait of Hormuz remain down more than 75% from prewar levels, and an LNG carrier owned by Maria Angelicoussis was recently hit near the strait. QatarEnergy has extended force majeure on its LNG deliveries through the end of November.
